guys running 315's

[srtthis]

any one have pictures of how much you had to beat in the wheel wells? im going to try to move my hood with everything in it to a set of saw horses to get the front end up and put my coil overs on and then the rear on jack stands to flip everything to pull the brakes in. wanna put a picture or to back there so i know where im gunna have to beat on

pics wont really help much, just get the tire/rim mounted up and hammer the **** out of it until it fits. its really that simple

haha that works too... prob order them at the begining of spring or so... the 225's in there now just looks goofy.

to get a 315 to fit right your gonna need the right wheel to make it look presentable.

Ive seen them on 10.5inch ponyR's and they definitly look right

these will be on a sc type wheel from american muscle

I have 315's and didnt have to touch anything. They fit great. No problems

yea the wheel wells are about the only thing i miss from my SN95... getting big rubber in them isnt a problem

i beat the living hell out of my fenders to fit the 275s under it, didnt really need to do as much but i figured id go ahead and "prep" it for 315s...just mount them, see where they rub and swing away...rolling the fender lip will probably have to be done too...and flipping quad shocks, and having the right wheels.

Well if a recall correctly they put a 315 on a 10.5 PonyR rims for that project ttop coupe in the magazine 5.0 Mustangs and Super Fords. I also believe they showed pictures of how they modified the inner fenders. It was a while back but chech their website im sure its on there! I believe they fit pretty well! If it were me i'd copy what they did but maybe find a different wheel but with the same specs as im not a fan on PonyR's! fyi

had 295s before, sucked for street driving cause it rubed like a mofo in turns. good luck with the 315, post pics if you can.

did you have 295s up front?? or did you just have a bad offset wheel and the tires hung over?

in the back, stock 10 hole wheels. even 275s scrap but not bad. definatly wanna get some rim's, but first I need a complete AC set-up and intrior.

oh, well you'll definitly have that on a stock wheel with 315s...wouldnt happen with a wheel meant for that wide of a tire

 

[Tanus]

why? cause the "ballon" effect of haveing a wide tire on a skinny rim?

Yes, and he is talking about 17" rims i believe and you are talking about 15s, totally different ballgame

I run 285s with no rubbing.

I have seen 315 Nittos run without much issue. A wide 315 might need a lot of work.
