A 315 on the rear is a very aggressive fitment. Rarely there is rubbing on the exhaust, but it may require fender modifications with it being lowered.

if your car is a gt, then no, you will not need to do anything but put those bad boys on, they will not touch anything. Now if your car is a cobra, thats a diff story.

I had to pull off the quad shocks to get mine to fit, but no other issues arose. No rubbing with C-springs. Put em on!:rockon:

315 Nitto no bulge and 315 BFG will fit with a slight bulge on the side no spacer is needed.


thanks for the info, would you also have any idea if a 16" drag lites would fit just on the rear of the car? thats my other option :rockon:

so a 315x30x18 on a Mach with H&R SS and Stingers catback is probably cutting it a little close ay? :bored:

will a 315 tire fit on a stock 17x9 rim??

Yes but it will not look good at all.They are made for at least a 10 inch rim.On a GT there are 1000's of people running 315's with no problem's even after lowering the car.

Also a 315 on a 9 inch rim will not have a good contact patch and will not wear right.A 275/40/17 is almost perfect for that size of wheel.
