I'm putting 18 x 9, 18 x 10 saleen style wheels on my 03 cobra with 265/35/18, and 315/30/18 BFG's. A friend of mine was telling me I might need spacers for the wheels to fit right, and before I put them on I wanted to check and see if anyone knew or is running with this set-up and had any problems with rubbing or whatever.

You shouldn't need a spacer with that set up. The only thing to consider, BFG recommends the use of an 11" minimum wheel width for the use of their 315/30-18.

hmmm I just had some bfg's mounted and balanced on some c5 z06 wheels for my c5. fronts 275/40/17 (9.5in) and rears 315/30/18 (10.5in) BFG Dr's and they fit just fine with very slight bulge(in the rear), and look really mean! Oh and my local DTD tire shop installed them too...the one in ontario.cali

They will certainly fit on a 10.5" width wheel, BFG just recommends an 11" width wheel for their 315/30-18 DR.
