    Tire sizes for 10" widened stock wheels for my 2004

    Currently, I am running 265 50 18 Nitto 555 Extreme on the stock wheel, which are no longer in production. They are pretty much toast. I know the 295 45 18 is the next perfect size to consider and work with the ABS/TC on the car when using widened stock wheels. I am just wondering how 295's would look on the 10". I hate the tires are too small for the rim look, lol. But would 305 45 18 work ok with the computer? They seem like the perfect fit for the 10" wheel. FYI, my fronts are 255 45 18 Nitto 555 Extreme.

    Rim range for the 295 is 9.5-11 inch. 305 won't effect ABS, computer.10" rim prolly needs 1/2 inch spacer

    I ran the 255/295 setup on my 2003 forever with great results and a beautiful look. You may require spacers, however if you have the naake suspension with QA1 or smaller diameter shocks you wont need spacers. On mine, Chris Curless modified the mounting location.

    On mine the wheels just touch the shock but also the Wheels are like 1/8" from the Metco control arms. So, I am going to need a spacer for sure or sell these wheels and get some 9.5"
