Default Actual tire size?..

My JK is on order and I am beginning to research for 35's and a 3 inch lift for it..

I want a 35x12.5x18 for the stock rims..

But what is the actual tire size//295/??/?? ,305/??/?? Everyone on the site just says they have 35's ,but do not give the actual size..So waht would a 35x12.8x18 tranfer to in tire size?? Would make my research much easier..

Thanks

Well, the closest metric width to 12.5" is 315mm. And, to get a 35" tall tire on an 18" rim, your sidewall has to be 216mm. So that's basically 315/70R18. I don't know if tires commonly come in that size or not, but that'd be the closest.

Thanks, I was after the metric size..On most tire sites they want metric sizes and the website has no selection for 35's..

Thanks again
