I am going to go with either the 325/60 or the 305/60 on 18x9 rims. Is there a noticeable difference in height or width of the two?

Tire size chart says that the 325 measures: 33.4x12.8 and the 305: 32.4x12

Thanks for the help I am trying to buy tires by tomorrow.

Do you know what wheels you're looking to put on there? You'll probably want a negative offset to clear 305's or 325's. When you go with wider tires, they have a tendency to rub the upper control arm. You would need the negative offset or a spacer to run something that wide I believe.

The wheels are RDR USA 18x9. They come in +12,0,-12 offset. After more research last night (my brain is going to explode) I have become scared of teh 325 width. I am now leaning towards 295/70. I just want a little bit wider look. So if you can help me it would be greatly appreciated.

Here is a link to the wheels if yall have never heard of them. WHEELS - Red Dirt Road

I think you'd be okay with 295/70R18 on 18x9 wheels with an offset of 0. It would push the wheels out a little. The -12 offset would just push your wheels out a little further. Maybe some guys running similar setups will post some pics.
