Default any1 have 315's on a 10" wide wheel?

curious to see the look, 11" wide wheels dont get a lot of protection from curbs with 315's. If any1 has these, did u have any wear problems?? I know the recommended is usually 10.5" wide minimum, but it should be fine on a 10" dont u think? especially is some people put 315's on 9" wheels, thats kinda pushin ur luck though i think.

You could put 315s on a 10" rim, I have them on 11" they look good, and h ave no problem what so ever. it was a plug and play.

Didn't you just answer your own question?

Although many will chime in, say it will fit fine blah blah blah . . . .

Follow manufacturer recommendations . . . they are there for a reason . . . Not to be ignored.

I think 315s on 10in rims would be pushing it. I have 315s on my mustang rear wheels (18x10.5)

I've been runnning Nitto 315s on my 9.5" wheels without any problems, I run them at 20 psi too. They hook a hell of alot better than my Nitto 275s. Just remember that if you do it and throw a tire it's your own fault.

tirerack.com shows the minimum being 10" for the dunlop 315 tire, thats the only one that says 10" min though, so it must run a little smaller than the rest.

I thought they would look fine on 10's--they almost look to small for my 11's
