Re: a 315 wide tire = what width wheel?
A 12" tire would be perfect with no stretching.
315 is tread width in mm. 25.4 mm to an inch.
315 divided by 25.4 = 12.401 inches.
That tire should have an ideal rim width from 11-13".

Re: a 315 wide tire = what width wheel?
At the time (20 years old, making 7.50/hr at a job where I'd work 40hrs one week and 20 the next) it wasn't very practical paying $350/mo payment and $200/mo for insurance. With my current job I could afford it easier, but with me trying to move out/get married it still isn't that practical. Do I hate myself for selling it? Yes I loved the car and miss it, but I know in the end it's for the best. I will own another LSX vehicle again...soon hopefully. The new owner (from what I've heard) has run the car into the ground and now resides in GA. My fiance saw it after I sold it and told me she thinks it's for the best that I will never see it again because of how it looked when she saw it.

this is off the nitto site. Just a random serach I just did. I t shows 10.5 wide. Personally, I like the extreem fit looks, meaning eith the TIRE LOOKS FAT, on a lettle narrower rim, or TOTAL STRETCH, on and over wide rim.
