12 inch wide rims..mmm : )

-low offsets push the rim outwards
-increase in width will fill up the fenderwell
(for the noobs to understand wheels better)

yes they'll fit, it all depends on whether or not you're willing to pull fenders some and how low you are. A 275 or 285/30 would fit fine, you would just have a lot of camber.
Oh, and dont listen to all the people who buy 18x8.5s front and rear because they dont 'need any more tire'. *** em, put em on and let the haters hate.

it's all personal taste. I think your 8-9" wheel is weak. I like having a wide wheel and stretching a little. As been discussed many times, stretching a tire does have actual benefits and purpose. It's not for drag racing but it does serve a purpose.

Don't justify your own stupidity with false claims.
My 'race car' has 275 rubber on 7" wide rims. Exact opposite. We need more rubber.

overZealous1,
I have 11's +28 with 305's and can't imagine 335 on 12's +25 not rubbing on the shocks, inner fenders and sticking out beyond pulled fenders, do you have any pics or links to 335's on 12's?
