There's someone's pic of a 'Bird with 315's stuffed in the wheelwells... http://www.foxtbirdcougarforums.com/showthread.php?t=15130&highlight=315+tires&page=3 Quote Selected
17x10 outback? Reply #5 – August 25, 2010, 03:08:03 PM thank you for that. i guess im not going with the 315's after what they said. i was going to put nitto 555 on it but i guess their 315's are barely wider then 275's... cant find any street tires from 285-315 besides the nitto 315's.

17x10 outback? Reply #8 – August 25, 2010, 04:32:37 PM I think that 315's will fit fine with the quads being gone.I still have room in there.The white car in the link has 5 lug rims,and,I'd have to question the offset of those as opposed to the 4 lug rims. Quote Selected

17x10 outback? Reply #12 – August 25, 2010, 05:28:51 PM Nittos are known to run narrow.Sumitomo makes a street tire in the size you mentioned.....http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires.jsp?tireMake=Sumitomo&tireModel=HTR+Z&partnum=135ZR7HTRZ$128 for a tire of that size isn't half bad either...I don't know it it's possible to fit on a fox, but Toyo makes a 345/40-17.....
