Swapping Rims?

1999 rt10

Tires; 345/35/18 rear and 335/30/18 front. will stock rear rims work for both of these front and rear upgraded tire sizes? also, what is best brand for these upgraded sizes?

 

[Chuck 98 RT/10]

Not sure if I understand, you wanna put 335s on the stock front rims? I doubt that is gonna work.

345s on stock rears will work.

no, i want to use stock rear rims for both front AND rear tire upgrades. will this work. got idea from GASDOC and his tire upgrades ,looked great

Hey Doc...You are saying that you want to put a stocker 18 x 13 wheel on all four corners, with 335's up front and 345's on the rear..yes? I am thinking the fronts will rub...You'd need an 18 x 12...or an aftermarket rim with a more positive offset...How about just going with 295/35ZR18's...they will fit on your stocker 18 x 10's...

Thought you were getting HRE's??? Wassup?

stock rears are to wide and have to much backspacing. i have done a combo like this though. there are pics foating around somewhere

Not to mention how unbalanced the car will be, it will definitely not be a good thing for cornering.

The max tires you can put upfront are 3.25 x 30 x 18. This is not a good street combo. This is a typical Purner road race set up. This is used with the stock 17" rears.

reason i was considering it, saw a thread under tire search and a member who goes by GASDOC, yellow viper, had this combo and it looks great, he said it caused no problems other than some tracking of road ruts at first. his tires are 345/35/18 rear and 335/30/18 front. so i assumed the stock rear rims could be used for this entire set up?

gerald; yes, im still getting hre's from jonb, im just getting some other ideas as well.
