Default TT2 17x11

Hey guys I did a search but really didn't find what I was looking for. I am putting a set of tt2's in the 17x 11 out back with the stock ride height. Did anyone do the same thing and did you have to roll the fenders. Any info would be much appreciated.

You should be fine as long as you pick thinner tires for them. I have 17x11 ZR-1's with Nittos on them since they run a little narrower than mickeys do. 315/35/17

The TTII tends to be one of the better fitting 17x11 wheels.

I am lowered (previously on the ProKit, now on Strano springs) and run 17x11 TTII's without any BFH work or fender rolling. 315/35/17 Nitto DR's.
Also run 15x10 ProStars at the track with 27x11.5x15 Hoosier's without problems.


It is hit or miss most of the time. Some cars will need a little massage work, some won't.

I rub a TINY bit if I hammer a turn hard...but nothing worth a BFH mod...its not harming my tire walls at all....I also have Goodyear eagle F1's 315/35/17 on the back and 275/40/17 on the front....also im lowered on the Eibach pro kit with KYB AGX shocks...rides pretty well.

im looking at doing the 17x11 TT2 also. but it seems like most people have had no issues fitting a 315 nitto DR in the rear lowered. but if its a wider tire then u will have to do some BFH mods and fender rolling!
