Its because the run flats have like 10 lines off tread them....any tire with lines looks wider....tires like the Proxes, or even my Falken's don't look as wide because of tread design....
The tires are defintiely wider than the stockers (I didn't have my camera handy )
and haha, yeah I had the exhaust put on AFTER these pics were taken. Also, all these pics and videos were on my 06 and I just traded her in a week ago and swapped all the parts to my 07
I love'm so far and have about 4,000 miles on them already. They really hug the road well; I take a highway off ramp at about 55-60mph that has signs for 25mph with the STIIs (I used to do 50-55 on stock rubber).
Bubba, I'm LMAO at your sig pic!!! I have had NO issues in the rain thus far and in Hawai'i there ends up being a lot of standing water. Still no problems.
They were pretty good. I got stuck in the snow once (tires?) and went through half a foot of snow no problem. I sold them to get the 09 DB wheels. Those were great but I think the BWoody springs ****ed up my ride height. It was actually fine with the Eibachs. So I got some "beefier" tires now, Hankook Ventus 265/295. They fill in the fender gap pretty well for not having to lower it (again).
It sure does look wide but not wider , and considering it being stock size 285 , i just thought 315's would look massive . Try posting a picture from the front showing the back tire .
And yeah, I thought they would be a little wider looking as well; however, 285 is already quite a bit of tire. If you compare the 315 to the 275, that is when the difference really shines
