Default 315 tire size

Can we fit a 315/35/20 tire size in the back without it sticking out? And would they fit a 10" rim?

Dude, I just cant see anyway that tire is not going to stick out. Im rolling on a 295 on 20's and mine does stick out but just by a hair. So if mine is sticking out on 295's, there is no way a 315 will tuck, even with the right off-set. I could be wrong but I dont think so.

Yea, it might stick out, but as long as it is only a half tread width (that doesn't mean half a tire width) that is protruding it is legal; at least in Oregon.

I just found this; only 305's but they fit.

So now the question is, will they fit a 10" rim?

315s will stick out just a little but i think it looks great that way too.. i just cant wait to get over this winter and put 315s at the back.. by the way they some people made them fit on 10' wheels but ideal size is 11' wheel.. if your wheels are 10', do not bother buying new rims.. just go and widen them to 11' and put those wide *** meats on the car..

and sure 275 to the front = kickass look!!

also why 20's?? come on dude these cars are not rapper cars.. the biggest wheels should be 19' IMO.. these are muscle cars!! personally, i will never go bigger than 18'

I'm a fan of 20's as long as they fit the style of the car, i'm looking at 20" Black bullitts right now. But 18's and 19's are not totally off the table yet, I just really like the way 20" fill the wheel well.

Couldn't agree more!!! Geez, the whole retro look is lost when 20s are put on. Then it looks like all the jokers who put 24" wheels on SUVs!!! Or like doodad sez, ricers and rappers on their Cadies and imports! I want to stay AWAY from that identity!
