Default just ordered 315/35/17 for my fox i think i made a mistake need help?!?

i just ordered a set of 315/35/17 for the rear of my 91. im running a 10 inch rim. i have the fender wells rolled as much as they can go and the inner wells banged in. i think i have made a mistake in buying these. the guy from discount tire direct told me they are the same with as the 315/35 nitto nt55r's. any advice should i cancel the order?
