9.5inch tire sizes
will 245/40/18 sized tire fit on a 18X9.5" wheel, or is the wheel too wide. I already have the tires and i wanted the 9.5 inch rims in the back for the deep dish style. I will eventually be moving up to 265 or 275 width tires in the future but will 245's fit for now?

it'd be close...personally i wouldnt do it, as the sidewalls wouldn't be perpendicular to the ground. check the manufacturers website for approved rim widths.

tire rack says that these tires that i have will fit any rim size within the range of 8-9.5". so i guess it should be alright.
