WHOOO!!! TIRE SIZES!

On a related note, you can get a 9.7 inch section width pretty easily on the stock V6 rims - and they're only 7.5 inches wide.

Hmmm... 315/35/20's on 10" wheels? Nitto says you need at least 10.5" to run their INVO's (which is what I plan on getting). Problem is unless I widen my rears and powder coat them, the only affordable wheels I can find (>$400 each) max out at 10". Will that tire fit on a 10" wheel... safely and without issue?

pick your diameter, your width, and your offset... expensive though

I am currently running 18x9 with 265/35-18 and 18x10 with 295/35-18...

You can get a 305 or 315 on a 10" rim, but most people usually have to run a lower psi to get a flat footprint with the tire. I had a 285 on a 9" rim and had to run the tires at 32psi. I used the chalk trick on the tire.
