Sumitumos are skinnier than Nittos, so I don't see how that would be possible. I compared my 315 Nittos to my buddy's 315 Sumitumos when he got them. And mine are wider than his. His Sumitumos aren't even wide enough for his 17x10.5" Bullits on his '04 GT, really.

yea same here my Nitto 315s fit perfectly on my 17x11 ZR1s, and plus i dont have any rubbing issues with this setup which amazed me. Oh and also just incase you didnt read it dont run these tires in 30 degree or below temp, they will crack.

same here on the fitment. i have never heard that before about the temps and have ran them in temps lower than that without problems. not sayin you didnt read that or anything just saying. i am picking up some black zr1's this next weekend and they have 315 sumitomos on them, are those wider, narrower or about the same as the nittos? im curious if i will have to do the BFH mod?

I've ran mine in a little colder weather than that. They didn't crack. But, they certainly didn't hook worth a ****. lol
