Default tire sizes and lowering springs

I plan to put H&R super sport springs on my car. I know how low the car will sit afterwards and that is why I want those springs. Call me a ricer, but I want to eliminate all wheel gap possible. Anyway, will 315/35/17's fit on the back of my car after I lower it that far? I don't want to have to roll any side panels if possible. I have 275's all round right now but plan to put deep dish on the back this spring and get some big meats on the back. Anyone with this combo have any imput?

When has anyone said it was rice to lower your car... thats rediculous [>:]. You should be fine with the super sports and 315's in the rear, it should look really good actually.

i have the h&r supersports with dd polished mach1 wheels 275/40 17 all around. i've decided this spring to go with a 10.5 wheel with 315/35 17 in the back. i'm really hoping it doesn't rub. if it does then i'll just try theh&r wheelspacer kit. oh by the way about the ricer thing [sm=icon_rtfm.gif]
