is this possible....

You could fit a 335 on a 17X9, it won't look good, but it can be done. It will fit on almost any width, but the sidewalls will puff out and it will make the tire more arched in the tread area.

A smaller offset might accomodate a 335 but I haven't ever seen it done. As long as the tire isn't so tall as to hit the lip of the fender (Which seems too be quite a bit higher than my 275's) you could theoretically hang the whole tire out of the fenderwell, even go negative offset. But then again..... why? Good luck finding a wheel with that bolt pattern, size, width, and offset.

If its not a Honda these days, it seems like its slim pickin' :D

If you want to be different just get some lime green powdercoated wheels. Thats different. :D

Arctc Wolf I sent you a e-mail with 315 width pics on a 36mm offset, and on a 50mm offset. Visual's always help.

jam where it says image down uder the message box, just click on that and paste the adress your pic is located... i think 335s would look good on the back, i have ttIIs and they were rubbing the outer a little and i cut the fender lips out..

So the pics have to be on a web-page to past them in? Cause it asks for some web-page stuff? Mine is on my hard drive.

Thanks!! I'll try it below:

Here is a rear view of a car with 50mm offsets and 315's.

Thanks jam. I just got the pics. the 36mm offset looks alright. the thing I like about the 36mm is that it sets the tire out wider which will allow it to take corners at higher speeds. both those cars look like slot car racers :D also, the tread width of 275 tires are 10.82 inches. the read width of 285 tires is 11.22. GM puts the 275's on 9 inch wide rims. people saythat 285 tires can fit on 9.5 inch rims. if these are true, the tread is wider than the rim by 1.82 inches w/ 275's on 9 rims and 1.72 inches w/ 285's on 9.5 rims. 335 tires are 13.18 inches wide and if they're put on 11 inch rims, the tire will be wider than the rim by 2.19 inches. remember that these numbers will be cut in half cuz it'll stick out the same on each side of the rim. I dunno whick I should do. I like the look of 275-40's on the 9.5 rims and the 315's on 11 rims, but I'm also looking for max cornering and traction possible.

I tried posting my idea of using a 36mm offset to set the wheels further out away from the wheel wells to see if you can use 335's. No one really replied to it. I don't think anyone has done it yet. At least seems to be that way. :cool:
