Keep in mind that the dimensions provided by the tire mfrs or Tire Rack apply only to tires mounted on wheels of "measuring width".

For every half inch wider rim width, the section width of the tire will increase by approximately 0.2" (5 mm). Meaning that even though the amount of 'sidewall bulge' is smaller, the actual width sidewall to sidewall has increased.

This gets more important when you're venturing off into uncharted territory with tire and wheel widths. Where the difference between 'make' and 'break' for clearance concerns can be smaller than 2 mm. Been there, with even less final clearance than that. Had to make my own 0.025" thick spacer once (not a typo with an extra zero).

6 Weeks and still nothing from Need 4 Speed Motorsports.
Why do I feel this is going to be an issue?

Here we are at 10 weeks in and nothing. I paid 2225 as a deposit on these wheels and tires. I think I will have to file fraud on them.
Don't order wheels or anything else from these guys. Do a google search on them, 6 counts of fraud in the past year.

Need for speed representative told me their wheels would be all T.U.V. approved. Later said the obviously couldn't afford to have them all approved. Also the representative sounded you and unprofessional.

They posted the tires mounted.
Notice the width of the 325 is the same as the 11.5 wheel. ( No Bulge )

A 315 on a 12"? That tire should be split as hell at the sidewall.

OP, looks nice. Keep us posted.

Please elaborate your issue with Cup 2s.
