Default pics of nitto 315/35/17 on 17/11 rim?

anyone have pics of the nitto 555r 315/35/17 on a 17/11 rim? i know they run really narrow, but are they too narrow for a 17/11? if they fit on a 9in rim buldging, im guessing they will be a bit skinny on 17/11s

I had them on my old 17x11 ZR-1s and they fit perfectly. Just make sure you don't rub up against a curb cause you'll take chunks out of your tire AND your rim.

I'm not sure what the difference in width is with the BFG, but I run those in a 315/18 inch size now and prefer them to the nittos.

They fit fine on a 17x11. Here's a couple pics on TT II's. Rubbing a curb will "rash" the rim as said.

Thats about when they stopped hooking on one of my other cars, they were bald around 3k miles. They were marginal at best in the rain even when they were new. Definately not a daily driver tire.
