Well according to this they'll fit on 10.5-11, so im sure they'll work on 10's

JEFF75645 · 10-30-2013, 08:49 PM

That's what I was thinking. Wont the overall height be a little taller on a narrower wheel.

TBone · 10-30-2013, 10:42 PM

Depends on the tire. The difference between a Nitto and PSS 315 is enormous. Check the manufacturer's website for rim fitment recommendations. Also just because it will fit does not mean you will get the optimum contact patch if the tire bulges. Sometimes a smaller size gets a better patch.

I run a 315/35 PSS on a 11.5inch rim. It looks so Phucken cool!!!!!!!

Also keep in mind it has to be within a certain circumference of the front or the 'puter goes wonky.

What kinda tire are we talking anyway; street, DR, RC?

Mostly it will just bow weird.

Pretty sure a 315 Nitto will fit. With any other I wouldn't try.. prob a 295 or 285 would be better.

They are Nitto NT05r. I found a set I could run this weekend and that's all they are probably good for.

From Nitto's website....

So as you can see they recommend an 11.0 inch rim which means it will bulge a little not giving you a great contact patch. It also does not have a very good load rating so be careful with your 2 ton car.

But, if it is a borrowed tire and not bought then it is the perfect price and who cares.

Nittos run thinner than other manufacturers like MT's.

litle88 · 10-31-2013, 01:53 PM

My car hooks on the street and track with the Nt05r's.

TBone · 10-31-2013, 02:59 PM

Sure, in a straight line...

Now around that on/off ramp you sure do slow down.....

Hey Zeke, you going to that Cars and Coffee at the new AutoPlex Chicago on Saturday? Ask you Cous' for details. I can bring your shirt.

Solomon and I are both at Baymont. Zeke might be there too. I think I saw GG was at comfort suites, which basically shares the same parking area.
