295 tire on 11 inch wheel... can it be done?
Im sure a 295 tire could fit on an 11 inch rim, but would it be practical? I have a great offer to buy some ccw's cheap but i wouldnt want to do anything like a 335 tire.. just too fat for me. So do yall think a 295 would be too skinny and i would have to settle on some 305 nittos?

Assuming it an 18 inch rim with a minimal 20 MM offset, no foreseeable problems at the rear. Though, probably problematic up front.

im not wondering about any rubbing issues. The guy who has the ccw's right now runs them on a GT... w/335's!! Im just wondering if a 295 will be too skinny for an 11 incher.

A 295/35/18 supposedly will fit a 9.5 - 11.5 rim. With 9.5 being tight, and 11.5 being loose, I would think 11.0 barely makes it. :PIMP:

I agree. I was running 315's on a 10.5" wheel. 335's......I'm sure you would have to make some minor adjustments to tuck those (fender roll/quad shock).
