I thought someone said they were 17x8, but oh well.. yeah, if you could get some 315 nitto's they look MEAN from behind - and they can get it on a 17x9 wheel... you also have to run them at 22-25psi really or they will wear uneven in the middle... as a DD tire, they're really the best bang for your buck once you hit high rwhp numbers.. which im sure you are with the KB.

Aren't the Mach 1 wheels 17x8?? The nitto is I think the ONLY 315 tire that will fit a 17x9...
As far as i know they are 17x9's

i voted nitto for no particular reason. i don't think you have any chance of getting traction with your kb though. you might be tempted to run your mt's all the time! i've got some 275 mt's mounted on a 15" rim and i've had them on for the past month!

i think some people will think the nitto's you listed are the dr's.

Right now, I am running 315/35-17 on my 17x9 rim.. look at the HUGE bulge (sarcasm [8D])



xxkaz,
I also have 35's and i was wondering if our rides can go 40's? I have already stepped up to 18" rims and still have a nice huge gap in my wheel well............

dunno... ask one of the rim/tire guru's on here - seem to be a lot of them.. however, i wont claim to know much about a subject i know very little on. It depends on your total wheel size.
