Even if it fits, I wouldn't recommend it. I got 315 RA1's on mine and I feel there is too much play in the tire walls in hard cornering.
I belive the recommended width for 335's is 13"

Using c5 Z06 rear 18 inch rims:305/35/18 Hoosier R6's
315/35/18 Kumho V710's
check the width of the tire tread.
In either case... these tires will rub the inner fender, both front & back.

[QUOTE=rustyguns;1573092774]do not rub on my C5 
[/QUO
Depends on alignment...
and how TIGHTLY you turn the wheel.
On both my C5 Z06's
and the current C6 Z06...
We do glass in (repair) the inner fenders occasionaly.
Most of us using 18 inch C5 Z06 rims all around have set the car up
for the track.

and some of us just cut out the inner wheel well liner.
Not all tires are the same width, measure them.
Hoosier 18x335/30 is 13.6" wide
Most others 18x335/30 are ~ 13.1" wide 1/2" difference.
but 10.5" rim would be better for a 305 and maybe a 315.

YEP !!!The Hoosiers for a given size are ~ 1 inch wider than
the Kumho's and most other brands,
when you compare than side by side.
Also some of the V710's have rounded shoulders which don'tneed as much negitive camber.
Thereby enabling a "modified track/street" alignment which is much friendlier to your "street tires".
Over the past few years I've run full slicks...
both Goodyear & Hoosiers,
Rolex/CanAm Hoosiers with a longer lasting rubber compound,
,
Dot "R"... Hoosiers, Goodyear's, Michelin's and Kumho's.
You pay your money & make your choice.
