Keep in mind that a 315 Nittos is really like a 285/295 tire. It's not a "true" 315. It'll fit comfortably on a 9" wheel. However, a 9.5" is optimal. Certainly people will tell you not to run a 315 Nitto on a 9" wheel, but that's complete

Pics of Sumitomo 315's on Enkei 17x9.5's in my sig. There is hardly any buldge at all.

im needing some help with some regular tires, i might just end up running BFgoodrich DRs on the back if i cant find anything else... i dont know how DRs will wear on a daily driver, or how the will be in the rain..
oh and am i going to have to remove my axel bump stops to get these wheels (11 inch wide) under the car, or do any other modifications?
