I'm sure you will enjoy the new rubber.

Post more pics if you care to.

For 315s, doesnt seem to buldge much at all. Looks taller though? Does it affect driving much or speedometer, etc?

It hasnt affected much of anything, i havent put but 10 miles on them, they dont seem to have alot of bulge either. I have crawled all over the rear looking to make sure there was no rubbing or anything and it looks good

315 Nittos fit on SVTPP 9.5" wide wheels. 315 Toyos don't. Different sidewall height. 35 aspect ratio versus 30 on the Toyo.

But the Nitto is over an inch taller than the Toyo.
315/35/20 Nitto 28.68" tall.
315/30/20 Toyo 27.44" tall.

And taller perfect for 3.73/4.10 cars, shorter better for 3.31 cars. I love my NT05Rs on 20x11s

In for your review..

After getting to put some miles on them , they seem to be a solid contender. No track time on them just street , 1st gear is useless still.... no surprise. 2nd gear will start to hold, grabbing 3rd and they will bark and away u go!! And this is on a hot day 85-90 degrees and the tires warm with me running about 30 lbs of pressure, im sure if u lower it some more they will stick a little better , i tried to confirm and they do but get a little wishy washy above 100 mph. And it seems like if i wanted to pull out around someone on the road the car felt very darty when doing so??? Im assuming its due to the soft sidewall

So do you like them better than the previous tires?

Do they offer more grip, same, less?

Are they more stable at speed, same, less?

They are better than my previous tires which were a set of mickey thompson et streets that were pretty bald. As long as the tire pressures were above 30 psi they seem stable to 130mph ,but i was giving up a little in the traction dept, if u air them down to say 25 psi they got a little squirrely. But at 32 psi , where i have them now its a pretty fair trade off. Dont ride harsh at all, they do throw rocks after just driving them on a hot day, not beating on them just cruising. Guess its just them warming up and getting sticking

Do you think the wishy washy or dartiness is do to putting them on the 9.5 wheel?
I am thinking of widening mine and using the same tire.

No i dont because when i air them back up to 32 or so psi it drives fine and doesnt act that way. I believe its just from having alot of sidewall flex/movement due to low air psi

Yes and no. I've had them on 9.5 stock and 11" widened stockers.
Car feels MUCH better at speed on the 11" and while increasing air pressure on 9.5" takes much of that away, running on 11" does improve all around.
Just a suggestion, but installing Roush side and rear splitters and painting your upper front spoiler would take your car to the next level.
I love the hood and sinister black, but those 2 changes made mine much cleaner:
