Tom, you can go for 315's but it is gonna be tight. You should go with 30 series and MAY have some rubbing on extreme articulation of rear axle. I have no problems as I have installed 1/2" spacer along with longer and stronger lug bolts. I have fenders pretty heavily rolled as well as Griggs GR-40 suspension that completely changes how axle articulates. I think you would be safer to to with 295's and see how that works out first. You can also park your car on a heavy bump so one rear tire is way up in the well, and the other is way down. Crawl under and measure every single dimension (on both sides) that your tire moves toward and do the math for clearance issues.
dowork. Nice to see you picked up the rims Mickey was pimpin' on the Saleen section [sm=smiley20.gif] I actually just was catching up on thread a minute ago and haven't gone to page 3 yet. I think a 265/35 is a nice tire for a 9" rim and a 285/30 is a nice tire on a 10" rim. These arethe stock tires Saleen installs on the '99~'04 cars. This will be fine with the drop you have and will look freakin' sweeeeeeet on your Mineral Grey ride
Since we are on the subject, I will pimp myOWN ride[8D]
I am getting a second set of Saleen replicas from
Hardcore Mustangsand getting 9"swidened to 10" for 285/30's up front. Rear 10.5"swill be widened to 11" andrunning 315/30's. All wrapped in
Toyo R888's and be bad arse! Before you say "What the....... a 10" wheel up front......? NO WAY!!!!!" No worries, I am installing the Griggs SLA upgrade to front end and could actually go 10.5"s and 315's if I wanted to REEEEEEEEAAAAAALLLLY push it.
Can I get a "Go Jazzer..... [sm=wootwoot.gif]Go Jazzzer [sm=wootwoot.gif]
