Default 335/35/17 mods?????

I read the sticky and I know it says don't run this tire unless you have an 11" rim. I have 10.5" and there is a guy on here that has a pewter TA like mine running TTM's with this size tire on and I love the way it looks. I have a set of TTM's 17x9 and 17x 10.5. My question is what mods will I have to do to get these to not rub. I'm at stock height and will stay there, will NEVER lower. I don't race other than the occasional street thing. I only drive the car 2-3000 miles a year. Will I be able to just throw this on at stock height with no issue just like a 315 or will I have to roll, BFH ( if so any pics for where to hammer) , and bump stop mod( not really sure what this one is, any pics for this and instrucions would be greatly appreciated also) ????? Thanks in advance for the help, have had these rims for over a year and I think I may finally be able to afford rubber so I want to get all my ducks in a row before buying. Thanks again!!!

BFH, remove bumpstops and/or roll fenders most likely. Buddy of mine had 335's and he had to do all of them but he was on a 17x13

i have the same wheels only with 315 tires .You could make it work with a bfh.It will depend alot on the tire brand as they vary in width .

10.5 is fine for a 335. There's a member on here that has them. I'm doing that when I get my OE Wheels.

Just hammering the inner wheel-well will work. But it'll be allot of hammering. Use 10mm spacers to move the tire outward a little.

If u take out the bump stops and roll the rear fender lips u will b fine. I run 315/35/17's and have no rub issues. My tires r summito. Even with people in the back still no rub.
