They look great. How much did they cost you and where did you get them? I want a set. What tires are those?

nice...if you wanna see wide, get some BFG G-Force KD's and then you will see a wide 315! However the Nittos never rubbed, but the BFG's rub a little on the driver side....Congrats on the sweet rims!

I wouldn't switch to Nitto's if I were you. I've got 315 Nitto's on my 17x11 ZR-1's and they are narrower than the wheel. I compared them to my buddies 315 BFG DR's, and sure enough...the Nittos were way narrower than his BFG's. Nittos run too small.

I know they're skinnier. the 315's I have now rub and I don't really feel like banging in the fender well so....
