Looking for people with 315/35/17 on 9.5`` rims
This post is just for people that have 315/35/17 on 9.5`` rims. The only reason is because I want to hear replies from people that actually have this. I have heard alot of opinions on this, but I want to hear from the people that have experienced it. Do you like the way they handle, the traction, or is there any reason why you would go to 275/40/17 instead the next time you buy tires? Thanks.

How did they wear? Did you lower the air pressure in the tires so they would wear even?

315\35\17 nittos
Running 245\50\16 and they half worn. Bought a pair of
17\9.5 rims. I would like to make the nitto 315\35\17s
my next upgrade. Im running 12s now and I was hoping
the 315s would work better than 245s. Need to know if
they will fit so lets keep the post going.

There is no reason to stay with the 275s for the rear. However dont put anything bigger than 275 in front.

A 315-35-17 tire will fit your 9.5" rim, however a 285-40-17 also fits. I'm also looking for new tires and 315s are pretty expensive, fortunately there's still some rubber left so I have some time to make up my mind ... 285 or 315.... I'm not sure if it's worth the extra bucks since you (or I) don't have 11" rims which makes the tire look wide... actually I don't think the 315-35 tire will look much different from the 285-40 when they're both on the same size rim.....might be wrong, anybody an idea (or pictures) ????
