i don't have pics, but i do know that putting the 325 on a 9in rim is a VERY bad idea, some have done it, but it is dangerous and not condoned by LS1Tech. I believe there is still a sticky up top about it, but im not sure..

I dunno how wide M&H tires run but if they are like nittos or worse than yes it would fit. Is it a good Idea? **** no its not lol. On the GTO forums I saw a guy put 315 nittos on a stock 17/8inch wheel and it did fit, but looked horrible, plus one sharp turn and there goes your tire....straight off the rim.

if the height of the front tires are different from the back ie: 28" rear 26" front you will throw your abs light

A 325/45R17 M&H will work fine on a 9 inch rim.







As you can see those are on a 17x9.5 Fikse FM5. The M&H's run narrow, even more than the Nittos. I am going to be running that exact tire on a 17x9.5 Fikse just like in the picture.

M&H's run real narrow, my buddy has the 390/40/17 or whatever size they make close to that size and he runs it on a 17x11 wheel. They are nice tires though so go for it

Can you have your buddy post up some pics I'm considering the 390/40/17 on my 17x11in rims.

Good luck with that 390. Width would be fine, but that's a 29.5 inch tall tire. Gonna need some work to get that to fit.

The car has never been lowered 29.5 won't be an issue.

I bought the 325/45-17 because I saw the guys car in the pics above. They fit with no mods and mine are on stock ss wheels so you will have no problems.
