Yep, they fit great. Had them on a few weeks waiting for my 10.5's. Honestly they fit the 9.5 better. I had 255's in front and 295s on the back on stockers, great combo. Would like 305's for my rears now but no such luck with the BFG KDW2's

295/35-18's can be shoe-horned onto the stock 9.5" rims, but it won't be optimum. The Tire Size Calculator recommends 10-11.5".

the 295's do not need to be shoehorned on, they fit and look great, and they are a nice match with the 275 fronts on the 8.5 and it also give you some protection agains road rashing your rims. The tire size calculator is just a guidline.

I just got a set of Z06 size Wide Ovals for my coupe. 265/295. They fit just fine. Tire Rack installed them for me too. They said it would be no problem and once they were on, I agreed. You can't even tell that they aren't perfectly optimum.
