Default Post your GSD3s in a 315 !

I need to get new tires all around and I been debating if I should go bigger to a 315 or stay with my current 285.

Also, please tell us if you had any trouble mounting them.

here is a link to my f-quick page. i think there is a pic or two from the rear on there. I have a TA, but you get the idea. These tires are badass, they look so mean from the back, and i believe they are about the widest 315s out there.

I have TTM 17" rims....the rears are 11" wide and I have 315's...I have a shitload of pics for you....

also, I dont have any fenders rolled or the BFH mod...when I hammer corners or am on the gas and catch a hard shift, they will rub....but its just annoying....theirs no harm in the tires themselves...just a wear mark on the inside wheel well where they rub....heres a shitload of pics for ya...















im actually looking to sell them....Im gonna go with drag radials instead....they have about 70% of tred life left so if you want them, shoot me a PM we can work something out.

I think the better question is, what size wheels are you running now? I find it hard to believe you can jump from a 285 to a 315 without a wheel change.

He said that he is running the 17x11 Zr1 wheels, those are some fat *** tires, they look really good as well as performance out of them too.
