Default 315s on 17x9.5 inch??

so i have 17x9.5 inch zr1 wheels on my car and im wondering if the 315s would fit? would i need to make any adjustments? its lowered on a eibach pro kit. i hear people having to roll there fenders in when running wider tires. also i hear people removing the bump stops.

I would not recommend putting 315s on that narrow of a wheel. I would do an 11" wide wheel

Yeah dont do it, my HOSS came with 315s all the way around on it when I bought it on the stock 17x9 ZR1s...not only did it look stupid I believe it could be potentially dangerous.

Some hammering and cut the bumpstop.

every tire is a little different though. depends what you get. you could probably fit a 305 nitto on a 9.5"
