Thumbs down 315/35R17's DO NOT FIT 9" or 9.5" WHEELS!!!

This will not be discussed. I will not tolerate that kind of post. If I see if posted it will be deleted no questions asked.

Read the tire manufacturers recommendations.

If you are foolish enough to try it fine . . .

If you find a tire shop ignorant enough to install them fine . . .

But encouraging others to recklessly experiment, NO. Do not PM me in regards to this, I will not reply. If you don't like my stance then complain to Brains or Nineball.

Sincerely,

The Tire ****

Until Nitto changes their printed documentation I will not allow discussion about Nitto 315/35ZR17 being acceptable on a 9" or 9.5"

Directly from Nitto's website: I have highlighted the tire so you can CLEARLY see.

555:



555R:



Proof is in the PRINTING . . . Nitto clearly state 10.5" MINIMUM wheel width.

1. If it is blatantly discussed I will edit the post

2. If you edit it back, you will receive a infraction.

3. If you still do not follow you will get a time out.
