New 315 Motivo's on BBS

I needed some new tires and purchased a set of Nitto Motivo's. I had them installed today and I'm adjusting to the new look on the wheels. I was running the orginal tire (275) on the BBS Wheel but I decided to go with the 315 Motivo's.

Let me know what you think!? Too wide?

Sorry about the photos, took them really quick as I ran back into work!

What size rim...it don't look bad, just a slight bulge.
How do you like the tires so far? This is the tire that I want to get so I was hoping someone would chime in with them.

Its a 10.5" rim. I was going to buy the Invo's but the price and thread life on the Motivo's felt like a better deal. I know the Invo's are very popular but I didn't mind trying out the Motivo. I literally drove from the tire shop to work (about 3 miles) so I really don't have an opinion on how the tire performs....yet.

That's how I feel. 60,000 mile tread life, good grip, and $250 for a 315 tire can't be beat.

Nice! My 315 Motivos just came in yesterday. I will be putting them on an 11" wide wheel to replace my NT05s

Looks good, the BBS offset makes them stick out a little bit, but not to much.

Yeah..thats how I feel too. The offset is a bit off and a 295 or 305 would have probably worked better. I just couldn't get the Motivo in a 305. I guess at this point I'm going to leave the 315 on with a 275 in the front.

315/35-20's on 11 inch rims, 10.5 in rims are just fine for these tires
