    so....

    as far as performance goes....they are good...its just that they are noisey? lol

    and if i determine that they are at a noise level that i can stand....that they would be a decent purchase?

    Where do you get your wheels widened? How much does it cost? Also, if I have that done, do I need any other mods to make 315 tires fit?

    Thanks.

    I have run them twice on my SRT-4. The stock size lasted me approx. 30,000 miles. I also had them on a set of 18" aftermarket rims as well. A lot of people say they are noisey but I never found that to be a problem. If you can hear them over the sound of your car then I think the car needs to be louder not the tire needing to be quieter!

    Just my .02

    Weldcraft can widen your wheels...you can get the details from PM'ing LegMaker as he had his done there....

    You will need a spacer and to modify your inner wheel well from what i understand
