Just had my fenders rolled and I was looking for a 315 that'll fit an 18" rim. I wanted to try the new Nittos NT05s, but the only make a 295 18. Car is a daily driver and will be driven when it rains. The BFG 315s look like they'd have no traction when they're wet and I don't wanna die on the freeway when it rains.

Any one have any good suggestions? I'm running a Kumho Ecsta Mx 295 right now.

How wide is your rim? You won't be able to run a 315 unless your rim is wider than 10 inches.

It's the 18x10 deep dish fr500. I thought you could get a 315 on a 10 inch rim.

Sorry, I meant 10 or wider so you are good.

I think that if you run a tire that wide your bank account is gonna take a large hit. Who did your rolling? The guy on OCHP? I have wanted to do it. My tires very slightly rub when I compress the suspension completely.

The guy that rolled mine was the one from this thread

His car was at RET the same time mine was and he just did it while it was on the rack there. Nice guy and did a great job for only $40.

I think the 295s I've got right now are around $240 / tire....I wouldn't mine paying a little more than that for 315s. If I can't find a decent one, I may just go with the 295 NT05s....they're not too pricey.

That is the same guy who I saw on Orange County Horsepower. I think that if We can get a few people in the OC to get this done he would come to us. I have been thinking about doing it to mine.

I have 295 Nitto INVOs in the rear and like them. According to Nitto's site they are almost as good in dry performance and have a better wear rating (same W rating). They also look different and I like that.
