wheel and tire guru’s, need some quick help. Looking at some 335 30 ZR 18 TOYO PROXES RA1 tires and they are too cheap to pass up. Only problem is, I know a 10.5" wheel are a little to narrow. My question is, can it be done SAFELY?

I also read on ls1tech that these tires run wider then their actual size.

I have read a few reviews on them on ls1tech with guys making 500rwhp + and they hook great I guess. Even arent bad in wet conditions.

I would buy them in a heart beat, I am just concerned about the size for wheel fitment and on the car fitment.

You don’t need tires, you need a belt sander to fix that motor.

RA1’s aren’t drag radials. The sidewalls are made to take a high cornering load, as they’re an R-comp track tire.

People consider them effective as drag radials too.
