Nah, you should be alright. I have 315's on 18's but it's not lowered. I believe a 315 on a 17" would be just right with what you have.....

If you get the right offset they shouldn't.

I have 315/35/17, I lowered w/ the pro kit. my fenders would cut the corner of my pass. side tire on occasion but I rolled the fender lip with a small hammer and made it into a nice curve. havent noticed a problem since. (fender lip not seen in the pics, I just did it). I also have an adjustable PHB but only it was ok w/ the stock length.
heres some pics of mine

17x11 ZR1's, 50mm offset. Lowered with LG G2 springs.

Fronts needed 7/32" spacer, griding of the spindle nubbin (take a wheel off you'll see it up near the UCA), and longer studs (better safe than sorry).

Rear fenderwells need to be hammered with love I'd show you a pic of where, but I don't have any. The general area is the inner fenderwell, towards the front of the car, about 1/3 of the way down. If you had a 5-spoke ZR1 wheel on there, it'd be almost in line with the northwest pointing spoke.
