I think its slightly too big.. 335's would have been enough.

But if you like it, thats what matters

I bet it looks good when rolling. other than that..not so much.

FWIW, contact patch would be wider on a wider rim.

Your tires will be cut soon enough. Looks cool but even with 315s you can get tire rub/ cuts on the sidewall from bumps in the road. Bette get those fenders rolled big time and maybe even trimmed off.

OUCH!! You guys are brutal! LOL! Actually, I agree with what the majority of what you have all said. It is a " love it " or " hate it " combo. While I dont love it, I dont think its that bad. Oh well, I will just put the 315's back on when it comes time.

Thanks again,
Matt

I like that you tried something diffrent. Please post a few more picks. These are some of the widest tires that I've seen posted on here. I would like to see a wider rim, like alot of these guys.

Too much tire bulge IMO....

These tires are for 12''-14'' rims....

Hey buddy:beer: Just took the car out for a little spin. I had some family come in from out of town today and one of them parked behind me, and left without leaving a key, so I couldnt get the car out of the garage all freakin day. It hooks alot better than it did for sure. Im sure they will do great on concrete. I thought about coming into town and washing it, but kinda lost the urge now. If you get out one night this week hit me up, Ill bea around.

Boss...they do fit the rim better, but Im not a fan of the flush look in the rear. To each his own though.

Yeah I know what you mean and that was just my opinion, don't take me wrong, they look sick and I'm sure traction has been improved as well.:beer:

Then get the proper width wheels and put the 335s on them? :beer:

You guys laugh at the VW guys who "stretch" their tires and you are doing the same type of thing by putting the incorrect size tire on the wrong wheels.

Nice, idk about drag radials but street tires usually do a little better once they get some miles on them...,but yea I'm sure I'll be out sometime this week, and Friday for sure if the rain holds off for the downtown car show
