295/35/18 on stock AMG Rim?
So im in the market to put drag radials on my S600.. I REALLY wanted to use BFG's as Mickey Thomsons have a very short life due to their stickier compound.. The problem here is BFG no longer makes a 265/40/18 tire like they used to.. I ran a tire calculator and the next size I can use that brings it to factory specs is a 295/35/18 Does anyone know if these will fit on the AMG rim? Or if anyone happens to have pictures of a tire of that size on the car id REALLY love to see it.. Thanks!!

depends on the weather
your AMG rear wheel is an 18x9 and a 295/35-18 tire needs a minimum of a 10" wide wheel ....
