I don't know from experience, but if driven carefully, they could get maybe 10k miles or so? But they could also get worn out quickly if driven hard all the time.

A 315 tire requires a 10.5" wheel per all manufacturers in which I know.

Many run them on a 10" wheel and have reported no problems. I think it is a bit large, but recommend a Nitto if you want to go that wide on a 10" wheel.
