Has anyone been able to fit a 325/30/19 on a stock Nismo 10.5" wheel?? I bought a used set of Goodyear Eagle F1 Supercar EMTs and nobody could seat the beads. I really want a 325 tire for looks and because it's the only size up from the factory 285/35/19 that is pretty much the exact same diameter.

I bought the used set of Goodyears for that reason, to test fit....but they wouldn't fit and I believe it's mainly because they are run flats and the sidewall is mutch thicker...and in combination with the extra width, it causes an issue. I am wondering if anybody has been able to fit a regular 325/30/19 tire on the factory Nismo rim.

The car that comes with these from the factory is the C6 Corvette Z06 / Grand Sport, which has 19x12" wheels in the rear...I figured that 1.5" less than a factory spec size would still work but apparently I was wrong. I just hope that someone has been able to fit a normal 325.

Thanx
