It all depends on your offset. The rear TSW wheels are already a very aggressive offset, meaning they come out to the fender lip. Running too wide of a tire may cause them to simply stick out. Those wheels will fit/look perfect with a flat sidewall. Any amount of sidewall bulge will simply stick out past the fender. It is all up to your tolerance level of how that looks.

As for the Invo being smaller, I have heard it many places including Discount and Bell Tire. I also found a pic when going through google which if I can find I will post. It was a pic of a 345 Invo next to a 325 Goodyear. The guy that posted a pic laid what looked like a ruler accross both and they were dead nuts the same height. Based on all that... this is why I brought up the whole do the Invo's run smaller.
Nine Ball... You seem to be the expert around here...What tire set up would you recommend for me. I am not caught up in the whole 315 thing, it's just that the nittos were in my price range. I love the look of the TSW Nurburgring wheel compared to most but if I had to do it again I think I would reconsider due to the offset. I guess I'm stuck now.
In your opinion do you really think that does not look right? They don't seem to buldge that much from the pic.

Now these axis wheels from what I hear have the same offset as my TSW. The guy said he has a 1 inch drop and by the pics I thought it looked ok. It's just hard to make decisions by pictures.
I'm just looking for advice before I spend money on the wrong tire.
