I know offsets and BS play into it, but did you have to do a bumpstop relocate to run the 315 outback?
You only need to relocate the bumpstops if you remove the bumpstop bracket spot welded into the inner fender well. The reason being, your bumpstop no longer will lines up with what remains with the bracket removed and is likely to allow metal to metal contact if you bottom out. The relocation just shifts the bumpstop under the unibody frame support to make full contact.

Now if you run something as wide as a 315, I'd recommend removing that bracket. Here's how I did it.

Finally got my 305/35 Nitto 555R DR and 285/35 Nitto G2. Man, the 305's are huge! Excited to see if they actually will hook up! Anyone in the market for some lightly used fronts? 275/40 p-Zeros
