Hey guys,


I was wondering if 315's would fit on our trucks with factory suspension? I have green key's and I have already trimmed the inner fender and front bumper from my old 16x8's. I am gonna put these on the stock rims. Not for a long time, but long enough for me to pick out another rim design. But, I just wanna know if you guys have any pics of 315's on stock suspension. http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/HiHi.gif


Thanks,


Chad

dbf,


There are a ton of guys that are running H2 wheels and tires right off the Hummer and onto their trucks. Check out the Let's see pictures of your ride thread or do a search for 315 stock suspension, and you will get tons of information. I am still waiting for the Hummer dealer to get a set in, but I am pretty confident they will fit with just torsion bar adjust, and some trimming.


Good Luck,
Dennis

Just about any/all tire and wheel combinations can be found in these 34 pages.


I have H2's (NO green keys) (NO lift) just cranked the bars. Miner rubbing at the extrems, but I know when/where and can live with it for the pricehttp://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/Big Smile.gif.

dieselboostfreak,


I am running 315 Maxxis Mudders on stock suspension. My T-bars are cranked and I had to trim more than I wanted. Hopefully I can get you some pics soon. To be honest, I am going to down size next time get my ride back (it went to crap after cranking my t-bars) http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/Confused.gif. But to answer your question, yes they will fit.

here is my truck. these pics is my truck with 35 inch Trxus MT. I now have Goodyear MTR 315's but no pics of the Goodyears. The Trxus as shown in my pics are the same size as 315. Injoy, I have alot of eye candy. I had to dod alot of trimming including trimming metal. I also moved the factory bumper forward two inches.

Where all did you have to cut the metal? I have a full replacement so I didn't know if I would have to worry about clearence in the front. I'm worries about it rubbing in the back of the front fenderwell. What about the back?

In the back is where I had to trim metal near the front door.

my buddy is running 315's on his stock rims with just the green keys and it looks great and rides fine... he did have to do some rubber trimming.

You need to get a replacement front bumper don't you?

"Need", no. If I see one that appeals to me I might. Then again I might make my own. I'm OK with the stock one for now. It's been trimmed to fit the big tires. The front flares are going to be revised here in the next week to incorporate some of the design elements of the rear flares.
