315s overkill for me? Im torn on whether or not to get some 17x11s for my TA. The car is a DD. Will probably never see the track. I know i will most likely have to BFH. Fender rolling is unnecessary. Will i need an adjustable PHB? I am at stock ride height. And what tires would you recommend?

with an lt1 I dont think you ever really have traction issues........jk
I would def. go with 315s, it looks badass, ask MRELECTRIC he's got the same set up if I'm not mistaken and his car is lowered. I have 275's just cuz I got a really good deal on some bad *** wheels, but I would have gone with some 315s on some 11inch or 10.5 in wide wheels

When i bought my car it had them, was lowered and severely GOUGED the tire in turns/bumps. I had to get a PHB, and cut my fenders for them to fit. Then i got rid of them for a set of 1LE rims 
Overall they were ok to look at, but made the car unbalanced in hard turns like canyon running. It would push the front end too hard and felt really sloppy. Now that i have 275's all around it feels alot more balanced.

I like the nittos for the street, I have 13k miles on mine and its time for new ones but a few manufactures make 315/35/17s.
