Talk about curb protection! Now that is too much sidewall bulge, and I would be afraid to turn a corner with that car aggressively, much less ever race the thing. I can't believe they actually got the tire on the rim.

Yeah, I think that might be a bit out of hand myself...lol...

Go with the BFG 315s! With only 1K a year, and since the 18inch BFGs are a LOT better than the 17s, i say thats your tire.

Thanks, seeing as how my wheels are 1/2" smaller, I may have more clearance than you. Im pretty sure that 315s will bulge just a little on my wheels, but not too bad.

On my last Mustang, I picked up a set of Black Bullitts with DD in the back, and my dad had an old set of Michelin Pilot Sports in 335/35/17 laying around from his old Viper. I had Belle Tire pop them on, and they looked badass. MUCH better looking than the set of Sumitomo 315s I bought after them. I would have bought the Michelins again, but they are ridiculously expensive. I really like it when the sidewall rolls a bit off of the rim lip. I have BFG DR's on my 10.5s in 315, and they roll over a hell of a lot more than my friend's 'Stang with Nitto 315 DR's do.

Thanks for all the info. A pic of those 335s would be awesome. I know for a fact that Michelin Pilots run wider than the Nittos, just lke your BFGs run wider than the Nitto 315s on ur friends. Does he have a 10.5 also? Thanks

I have never seen pilot sports but from what Ive heard they are wider than Nittos, not sure if they are as wide as BFGs, but Nittos are the narrowest of them all.

That is dead sexy. I don't think that is too stretched at all. Looks just right if you ask me.

Gottem installed. DT hooked me up

The guy ordered the BFGs and the Nittos from two seperate places without me having to even put a deposit. He said he was curious how they looked and got them both for me. They were both wide as hell

Will post pics as soon as I can figure out how

Thanks yall
