Default 335/30/18s

Are they a good fit for the rear Z rim? I don't mean, "Will they fit?" Are they a good fit?

Yes definitely a good fit but you need to get the Michelin Pilot Sport 335/30/18 if it is a BFG it probably won't fit because the Pilots are not a true 335 they are probably like a 315 or 325. Its kind of like when you buy a pair of Nikes and they fit a little tighter in the same size as say Reebok

got the pilots on my ccw's on 11.5" rims and they fit great, I'm not sure how well they will fit on stock z wheels, I am going to look for a comparable size bfg for my next tires, they may have to be 315's or 325's to fit without tubbing I don't think a bfg 335 would fit without rubbing, I know the bfg 295 is an inch wider than the same size pilot.

Yes BFG's are a bigger tire than the Pilots that is why they fit so well on the 10.5 inch rim.

What widths do they have in the kd's besides 295 I would love to compare tread width against the pilots to see how big a kd I could fit on the 11.5's.

I heard that, a kd 315 should be the same actual width as the pilot 335, fit the ccw's perfectly and have twice the traction
