I THINK Hennessey did it and got lots of rub. They fit in the fenderwell, but bumps made them hit. Don't quote me on this.

Good point. + how far in could you set the wheel until it would hit?

I believe it's also illegal to have the tires sticking out past the wheel well lip, precisely for the reason of safety. If a cop pulls you over they can write you a ticket for that.

On a side note, if there really are problems with 315s outback, a good solution may be 305s. I had those on my 04 cobra and they are still a nice upgrade from a 275
