Well there was a thread a while back about someone running 315's who wanted to throw 335s. I think he had a s/c saleen... but there was some debate on how it would hurt performance rather than help.

Than again... i don't know your plans for the car. 335/345s would look siick though!

well i think if your running 700+ hp ... your not worried about the performance difference from a 315 to 335/345. I plan to be at 725HP (with NOS and FI) in 2 years from now.

So with that in mind I think the extra width will only help me.. any thoughts??

Yeah the width will definitely help out along with the suspension mods I will be doing and not only that but.. it'll looks sick as hell lol!

Matt over at stangmods HOOKED ME UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Everyone was out of these rims.. EVERYONE in the COUNTRY!!! I called all over and everyone is out of stock of these in 20's so Matt hooked me up big time and I have to tell you.. I've NEVER had such good customer service, it's not even CLOSE to an exaggeration. We have been in contact everyday on this and he is willing to do whatever it takes to help a fellow out!

The tires I bought off ebay though.

the (2) nitto invo 315/35/20's were 350$ for both.

the (2) nitto invo 245/35/20's are about $350 for both as well.. (haven't bought them yet)

My rims are on back order but should have them by March some time.

good stuff man... I really wanted to get the black chrome FR500s as well but I pretty much went through the same problem you're going through now. After about 6 weeks of waiting I'd had enough and went with some GT4 rims...I'm not patient enough to give it longer than that

As for 335s/345s....seems extreme. Idunno tho...never been in a 725HP car
Mine has 305s and I can smoke 'em if I wanted so I guess that's about right

Yeah the wait is tough but I am an EXTREMELY patient person when it comes to getting things I reallllly want. And I wont settle for something I don't like as much.. (plus i got some dough off for waiting !!!! )

But my car is nowhere near where yours is at yet.. mines practically stock performance wise besides the tuner and exhaust... But like I said within 2 years I plan to have all my performance work done at around 725hp and any rubber i can get with that much HP is going to help!

And if your at 561rwhp and ur smoking 305's im sure you'd be smoking my 315's too!

GT4's are very similar though and they look nice and fit well on your car!

I could have bought the rims NOW and had them already but they were 18's not 20's... I really want the 20's I feel they will fill my car out better with the future body plans.
