[QUOTE="Discount Tire, post: 6244571, member: 64658"] A 315 is not recommended for a 9" wide wheel because a 315 is roughly 12.4" wide (manufactures may vary) The bead of a 315 will be pinched when seated on a narrow 9" wheel. This pinch causes a lot of problems some that you can see some that you can't. You can't see this without the proper equipment but tires generate heat from friction when driving on the road. A properly seated tire disperses the heat through areas in the tires shoulder that are designed to handle it. When a tire is pinched or stretched (seated on a wheel that is too wide) the heat is generated in areas not designed for it therefore the tire retains more of it. This can lead your tire to wearing out faster. It can lead to irregular wear patters, difficulty maintaining proper tire pressure and can cause the tread to separate. Prolong exposure to this can lead to a blowout. [/QUOTE]
