Default Nitto NT05R 18"

Hello

I am considering the Nitto NT05R on stock rear Z06 wheels. Will the 315/40/18 fit or will I run into issues?

Front would be Nitto NT05 on stock front Z06 wheels 275/40/17.

Thanks for the advice.

the 315 will fit the wheel but it will bulge a bit and might rub depending on how low your car is, it is also pretty tall and will make your gears longer which may or may not be a bad thing depending on your setup... also if you have a z06 you might have to remove the inner brake ducts to fit a big tire like that, I had to remove mine with a 305/35/19
