It's time to replace my Pilot Sports and I really like the price and quality of Firestone's Firehawk Wide Ovals, however they don't come in 315's for 17'wheels. The largest that are available for my 17' wheels are 285's. Has anyone seen these on 11" rims?

I am running 295's on my rear 19's. The fit is very nice, although I could go with a wider tire, I wanted to BFG KDWII's and that's the largest I could get as well at the time.
They work great for me.

Damn I was going to post this same exact question. I will have an answer and pictures tomorrow. I ordered a set of C6 Z06 rims and the rears came in at 19X11. I also ordered a set of GY F1 take offs from a standard C6 thinking it would be perfect. Damn I hope they fit.

I hope this works for you......and me.
I just bought the same tires and waiting for the same rims to arrive.
Looking forward to your pics.

Great! I look forward to seeing your pictures. I hope the tires and wheels work out for you.
Guys I am getting out of the office early to get them put on. I will take some pics in the morning so you can see. The reports are mixxed. Looks like it will work but some say the side wall stretches to much and looks stupid. I will look and see.
I left the damn camera at home and it was not charged last night. Anyhow, my review on it is, if I were to do it again I would have ordered 18X8.5 and 19X10 with the stock tires. With that said, was it bad enough for me to pull them. HELL NO. It looks fine. The rims are big and I esxpected to see a little bend in the side wall and it was less then I thought. It looks fine, but if you want 305+ on the rear expect them to come past the fender a hair. C6 guys complained of 3/4" and more. I am right at it. They do look good and for the deal I got on the tires I would do it again. The most important thing is the critical ass wife said "Wow that looks good" and she is into this stuff Pics speak a thousand words so I will see what I can come up with in the office.

Anyone with 285's on 11' rims?
Pics speak a thousand words so I will see what I can come up with in the office.
