  • Tire/Wheel Size Question

    I've been out of the racing scene for a while and slowly getting back to it. Will a 315 Nitto or other DR tire fit on a 17x9.5 inch wheel?...TIA.

    I've seen 315s squeeeeezed on a 9.5" wheel but it looks and performs terrible. A better choice is 275/40s, or move to an 11" wheel to fit a 315/35.

        Agreed. I have 305's on a 10" wheel and I'm not real fond of how they perform or look.

          i've got 295's on a 10" wheel and it's about perfect IMO

            It depends a lot on the tire, the ones I had on my 10.5" wheels werent quite wide enought, and looked "stretched" and gay.

              So do I, and they look fine. But Nittos do tend to run more narrow than other brands.
