no....you need at least a 10 inch wide wheel.

You live in Canton? I feel for you, lol. The one thing that REALLY stands out about driving through the NC mountains is Canton. I guess you know why, lol.


On the tires ... it depends on a few things. How wide is that rim? What brand tire (some 315's are wider than other brand 315's ... I dunno why)?

There's a thread in the Talk section right now where a guy mounted 315's on a 9" rim.

i just did it for a freind

yes the will fit, but whoever mounts them better know what they are doing in order to seat the bead properly

from a perfomance aspect, they are not the best idea since they are HUGE. but if its looks your after and the price is right go for it.
