255-35-18 with this work on back wheels?
Got 18-8.5 wheels.For the front i will be using 245-40-18.Just wondering if the 255-35,s would work on the rear.

Uh, ok...guess he thinks the 'appearance' might be 'cool', but for anyone else who knows a thing about cars, it is laughable!

It serves no purpose on the car, but it does look wicked !

I don't know how Uncle Max's 18x10's fit in the rear without rubbing on 275's. I have 245/40/18 on 18x8.5 +37, and my rear fenders had to be rolled. Keep that in mind. What kind of rollers did you get?
