Default On the topic of 315s

315/30/18s on a 10.5" rim DO fit on the back of a bone stock 1994 SC400. Was feeling froggy tonight and moved my supra wheels and tires onto the lexus. Zero rubbing even around corners. Yes this is on stock suspension and no rolling/cutting. Flaken Azenis RT-615s. You're welcome

Yeah, that's definitely a little omission that might be worth knowing.

I've got 275's on 10.5 inch wheels and they just barely fit on my SC. What kind of offsets are you running?

If I had to guess, they sound like they fall in the mid 30's to low 40's.

Yeah I'm guessing somewhere in the low +40's.

I always thought 315's would be too wide for a 10.5 inch wheel?

Got home late and it was dark so no chance tonight- I'll have to snap some camera phone pics tomorrow. You guys are good at the offset game! 18x10.5 +43. RedPhoenix knows his tires, they fit really well on that size with just a pinch of bulge. I'm getting 18x11.5 wheels for the supra and I wanted to test fit these on the SC - I'm moving the 315s over to the supra and I'll probably go with like a 295 so I can lower it.

Also.... little known fact that's going to get selfishly buried in a thread about tire sizes... I measured my urethane rmm supra lip. It the EXACT same overall length as my stock SC400 lip

Meaty tires, that's how it's done.

315 MT ET Streets still showing a bit of rim on my 11.5's, may end up going 335's to cure that. Visible lip kinda bugs me.
