Reply to "245/40/ZR17 and 315/35/ZR17 on a stock body"

Dear Steve,

Assuming that your seventeen inch diameter wheels have the correct backspacing/offset, then yes.

One of my Panteras is shod with Sumitomo tires in exactly the size you mention. The other one has 255/45?/17 in front (Kuhmo) and 315/35/17s in the rear.

Full disclosure: both use PPC Koni shocks and springs. Both have 4+degrees of positive caster. Both have had some special massaging of the middle portion of the front fender edge due to the combination of high caster and wide tires.....

Obviously, 225/50?/17 size should fit without any drama, but it is a bit small in proportion to the 315s in the rear.

No problems with 315/35/17s in the rear.


Warmest regards, Chuck Engles
