Default nitto 555 ????

im looking at new tires and wanna run some 315s in the rear. Will i have to roll my fenders or have any other problems if i do? Im mounting them on some c5 z06 chrome rims.

thanks

your prob going to get flammed for not searching......

it depends on a couple things, are you at stock suspension or dropped? if not is it in your plans? Also even the brand of 315 makes a difference. I fit the nitto555R (skinny) with zero problems and then moved up to a 315 BFG KD that is much wider and was a little too close for comfort.

I am running 285's and had to roll my fenders. My car is lowered though. When it sat at stock height i didn't have any issues.
