Bigger is always better (to an extent). The way 335s look from the rear is worth all the effort it takes to fit them.

I am running 17x11 w/50mm offset and 315 out back.I have rolled fenders and hammer modded inner wells just for safety sake(no rubbing)

When the time comes, I am going to try the 335s. The 315s fit fine but I will be lowering and that may change things. We'll see.

18X9 is a ricer size...... :jest:
If you study offsets and the way they work, the closer you can get to the fender, the better... thats why a 38mm offset is great :judge:

I dont have any plans that will make these bad boys spin in 3rd, but ill live :)

I was refering to the other sizes from thier website. Wasnt ment to be a flame. If that's your goal go for it. I dont need to study offset to know 9 and below doesnt look good to me.

no pics of tires wider than 315's..???? i guess it takes a mini-tub to do it properly. :confused:

It depends on the brand of tire. 315 GSD-3's are probably every bit as wide as 315 Nitto 555r's.

More importantly though, is it safe to widen your rim by that much?

are you kidding me? gs-d3's 315s are like 2+ inches wider than nittos in 315s

+1, either way man, I'd just go with the 315's, you'll have a little less to worry about!

I think you can fit a 335 under a t/a easier than a camaro. Good luck beating away your fender.

thanks,the bfh mod was not that bad.

If your car is lowered you are going to have major problems with fitment (335's), if it is not lowered you are just going to have problems with fitment, 315's depending on what tire brand you get they aren't that bad. I have a T/A and I have had nittos and dunlop 8000's and D3's Nittos were by far an easy fit when I first got the D3's I had problems on my passenger side till I broke out the hammer. I am lowered 1.5

Those 345s look sick. I never thought I'd say this but they might even be a little too much. Maybe I'm just not use to seeing tires that wide on an LS1. I bet it looks awesome in person.
