Re: Whos running 315'' tires???

just need to bump the pinch weld at the rear of the tire, on the inner wheel well.

and remove, your quad shocks

I didn't have to do a thing and they fit fine on my car. I do want to roll the fenders a bit so that they don't rub when I'm carving the corners though.

I took off the quad shock and pounded a tiny bit of the inner wheelwell for reassurance.

Damn 315" tires

315 milimeters, not inches. 315 inches would be 26.25 feet wide.... 315mm tire is appox. 12.68 inches.

and on my car to make my 315s fit, my quad shocks were removed before i purchased the car, and i "massaged"
my fender lip, as well as beat in my inner fender. i haven't rubbed my tires once since i did all this.

Yea I know I was just giving OP a hard time as he had "315"" in the title instead of "315"

you don't need to remove the quad. I've run 315s on a couple cars, still have the quads on em. Stock 98 axles.

I had a problem with the brake line retaining brackets and had to bend them down a bit. Goodyear eagle F1 GS-D3 tires though. Not sure in the BFs are that wide.
