Default Rolling lip and pounding inner fender for two tire choices on new TTM.

I am getting 17 by 9 front and 17 by 10.5 back TTMs. I am now planning on running 285 17s firestone wide ovals for street use and likely et streets drag radial in 295/17 size for track. Will I still have to roll the fenders and bring out the BFH for the above size. I am pretty sure would have to for say 315/17 mt drag radials but they are not recommended for 10.5 inch rim.

315 nitto DR's here. not really that wide, especially for a 315. no hammering or any rub issues. 1" drop.

buddy had BFG and Mickey 315 DR's, which are considerably wider, also 1" drop, and he had to BFH a little

these were both on 10.5 TTM's
