315/35-17's?
 
Ok, buddy with a 97 TA wants to know if he can run 17x11 rims with a 315/35 tire without any body modification. Thanks guys.

You might want to try a "search" both here and on the Appearance board... I know I have answered this question at least a 1/2-dozen times in the last few months.

With a 50mm offset (7.93" backspace) 17x11 wheels, they will fit. Some people have no problems at all. Others need to do any or all of the following:

1. Cut the corners off the jounce bumper brackets so they don't catch the inside of the rim when you jack the car.

2. Massage the inner fender liners with a 3# hammer... .nothing really serious.

3. Recenter the body over the axle using an adjustable panhard rod.
