[QUOTE="Norton, post: 14688609, member: 145307"] +1. "Okay to run" is a matter of perspective and risk acceptance. According to [URL="http://www.nittotire.com/race-tires/nt05r-dot-compliant-competition-drag-radial-tire/"]Nitto[/URL], "Approved Rim Width" for their P315/35R20 is "10.5-(11.0)-12.5" inches. That means, regardless of how they might LOOK, you're squeezing tires meant for rims 1"-3" WIDER than our cars have when you mount them on (stock) 9.5" rims. That's why Nitto's "website shows no tires for the 2013-14 Shelbys." I suspect it's also why biminiLX recommended widening. Obviously, we're each free to setup our cars the way we want them. From a risk perspective, however, I wouldn't run tires that large on rims that small and it's relatively certain Nitto won't be liable for any potential damage/injury when their tires are installed on rims so far out of recommended spec.
