will those 315s fit on 10" rim? or do you need 10.5" or bigger?
yes they'll fit, they'll actually fit on a 9" wheels with very little buldge.

I just put some used 315 Nitto's on my car. 17x9 03 cobra. They look GREAT! Very little bulge. I was VERY impressed on how they hook up. Now they aren't going to take an aggressive launch, but they will stick like glue from a 10 roll N/A

I sprayed my car on the street for the first time with the nitto's yesterday, and I was impressed. I went from a stop, waited til I was going about 10-15mph, then sprayed. It semi hooked in 1st, then blew the tires off on a hard 1-2 shift. I got out of it, then stomped it again, and they hooked great all thru 2nd and 3rd. This was with 475rwhp/575rwtq. And my tires were used. Less than half tread left. They are NOT a slick, but they did alright.
