Tincup's 63 Dart w/5.7 Hemi

By the way, your tires are 315-35-17 which equals 12.4" wide x 25.7" tall, my tires are 285-40-18 which is 11.2" wide x 27" tall. You have a very wide tire there, and on a 10.5" rim there will be some balooning of the sidewall. Take your time and measure carefully, those wheel tubs are going to be full!

Yeah, the Nitto's are known to run narrow and they are, although to be fair there isn't any weight on them at all without an axle or anything. Surprisingly for being a 10.5" rim the sidewall fits perfectly.. And yes, the tubs are full, but I have at minimum a 1/2" on the inside of the rails right now and I can slide 2 fingers fairly easily through the outer wheel house. I could've, with bigger wheels, fit 335's.. 13.5" section width tires in a 3200lb vehicle with 600hp, corvette's watchout! :snakeman:
