335's

335's UPDATE

Got a good deal on some 335/35/17 tires and was wondering if I will need spacers with a solid axle?

ok well 335's fit with no spacers and i still have 1/2 inch room.

 

[BrookhavenTuner]

waht are the tires on the car?

those are big ass tires.

 

[No Antidote]

275 on the car but i got new 10.5 wheels

damn I know 315's are good. I havent seen anyone with 335's on to ask them.

 

[Bizarro]

I would mount them and see...I could see it possibly hitting the exhaust if nothing else...

If you like that big of a tire, that's cool and all....but that's almost too much of a good thing to me... :shrug:

I can see the tire sticking out from the wheel well also and tossing rocks up on the paint too.... :shrug:

It looks like the tires you had on there were over inflated and the middle wore out pretty bad.

Also will a 335 fit on a 10.5'' rim. I remember seeing someone with a gt on here widen a 10.5'' to a 12.5'' to make them fit. And most cars that come stock with 335's use at least an 11'' rim.

335 will fit 10.5 wheel. Those Michelin Pilots are very nice tires. I have 335 30 18 on 10.5 wheels in the same brand on my 99 Cobra and the only clearance issue I have is that the tires will not turn when it is jacked up. I do not know how the 17's will do, but worse case you can use longer studs with like 1/4" or 1/2" spacers that way they do not stick out too far. With the straight axle 1" spacers may work as well.

the reason yours wont turn when jacked up is probably the irs bolt which he doesnt have(unless your swapped too?) are you lowered? that helps? and the shaved/mm bolt helps, if your running the stock bolt watch it...

and also... my goodyear gs-d3 315's are actually only 1/2" skinnier than a set of 335 pilot sports when mounted(i did a comparo. also including skinny ass nitto 315's 1.5" skinnier than gs-d3 315's)

with 335....hell yes...you need both LFP 3/8 spacers and MM button head IRS bolts. Or you can just roll your lip.

Most cars that have 335s also have something else... mainly the HP to need such a wide tire.

This reminds me of a local kid that has a slow ass non-PI 96 GT w/AOD with 315s out back. I dont know what makes him think he needs 315s other than looks because it sure as hell cant back it up. Please dont take this as a flame thats not my intent. I mod my cars as needed, not simply because it looks cool.

I'm running 335/30/18 pilots on a 10.5 AFS wheel, rolled fenders, no spacer, MM button head bolt. No rubbing! Tires do contact button head bolt when suspension is unloaded (IE: on jack stands).

Pics...now!!!

Dirty Canadian thanks for the info but I was just giving my 2 cents. I try not to jack mine up(very lazy). I do know that the tires look mean as hell from the rear and I get alot of complements on them. They also hooked up decent when I had them on my 04 terminator.

 

[terminutter03]

Damn, I want 335, I just realized the Nitto 315's are narrower than BF's by like 1.25 inches!

 

[99riocobra]

you may need a small spacer. it's common to rub the exhaust and/or the quad shock.

 

[kxt]

i'm thinking about a 3/8 spacer for mine but I don't wanna hit the fender lip and cut into the tire.

 

[Screamin Cobra]

I have 335/35/17 on my Cobra.
Michelin Pilot Sports on a 17x10.5 rim.

 

[Bl4ckedoutc0bra]

From what I know they fit the rims but you may need a spacer, especially with an IRS setup. With a spacer bigger than a 1/2" you will start to see the rim/tire extending past the fender, which some people like. This happened to me while running a 1" spacer with 10" rims and 295 tires.

I hope the above info helps.
