whoever says their too wide has probably never tried it. take it from someone who HAS ran 315s or 325s on 8 inch rims, its fine..

Who ever says that is the tire maker... they know there jobs and that the reason they put a max and min wodth on rim size to be used with the width of the tire.... they say that becaise it is unsafe and its to cover there own *** when the tire does unseat and that way there not liable. Its the same reason the sticky at the top of this pg is there..... ie the 315's on a 9.5" tire.....

Who else is running that size of tire in a 15x8 rim?
****, that was my only option, I ordered the tires like at 3pm from jegs. later I got an email saying some of the items were shipped and some were backorder and the backorder ones were the 15x10's rims, so I called and they said the only ones they had in stock were 15x8's and I asked somebody that "knows" about it and he said that will work for the tires you already ordered... so I said good cuz I didnt know how wide they were but, so far like I said It looks like is too wide but I've been driving it and launching hard and well so far no problems, but yea I was planning on another set up
Thanx for the advices anyway

so what tire should I put on the 15x8 I seen the 275-50-15 is wider than the 275-60-15,I would like to keep the car lowered,besides the grinding any other mods have to be done to get these to fit.thanks
