'03/04 Cobra with Nitto 315 DR's
#13
I think running a 315 on a 9" wheel is a bad idea. NONE of the Nitto 315/555's are rated for less than a 10.5" wheel.
I am sure the set-up works well for launching, but you are gonna get funky tire wear and be squirly on hard cornering. A 275 is a much better fit and even that is pushing a bit on a 9" wheel.

My tire wear wasn't really to bad... I got about 10 months or so on them... which isn't really off from what people normally get on a daily driven car with 500 +/- rwhp... the cornering was fine, as was the wet traction.
The only time that it became an issue was when the tires had been run basically bald.. then the rain drives turned into adventures.

275 is not even CLOSE to pushing it on a 9 inch wheel...

I agree with the 275 not even close to the limits on the stock 9" wheel, 275's stock from Ford...I'm going to order me up some 315's, I was going to buy th 10.5" wheels until I read that information on CobraBob's site & with all the help on MF
