I'm gonna be using 17x9 bullits and was toying with the idea of using 315s in the back, will they fit the bullits? (I know I'd have to modify the frame for 315s)

Also, what's the biggest size tire that you can put out front?

275s are the largest conservatively speaking. I've run the Nitto 555s in 285s on 9" wheels which looked fine but they did bow out some. 315s would never fit. You would need, at minimum, 10.5" wheels, preferrably 11.0" for the nitto DR's.

I looked at four different 315/35/17 tires at the Tirerack, and two recommended 10-12" wheels, one recommended 10.5-12", and the last recommended 11-12". Depending on which tire you get, 10" is really the minimum wheel width for 315's.

245/45/17 on the front, the 275/50/17 is 27.6 inches tall and will not interfear with anything. you cannot get 50 tall in the 285, they are just wider, i have pics the post is BULLIT WHEELS, not sure when it was but it is there
