yes, it'll work. i saw a guy at my local tire shop yesterday running those exact same michelins. they are a pretty nice looking tire. those 305's really filled up the wheel wells nicely.

I do not know if it will work with aftermarket wheels but it should with stock wheels. Aftermarket usually changes backspacing so you may have rubbing issues.

I agree. It will depend on the backspacing of the wheels. Remember, wheel width and backspacing are as critical to fitment as the size of the tire itself.
