are 335\'s too wide for GEN-I rims?

i have a lead on a set of 4-335's R1 compound, that seems way to wide for the 10" wide Gen-I front rims?? without spacers or anything?

Michelin specs. a 12" - 13" rim for their 335's.

On the right rim, min 12", the 335 will rub the inner fender.

As Tomcat pointed out, a 335 mounted on a 12" wheel will rub the inner fender.
But, a 315 on an 11" ForgeLine wheel is the hot ticket for the prepared and modified classes at the Viper Days events.
