The 315's will be wider than your stock tires.

These are KMC 18x9 with 325/65/18 Nitto All Terrains. All I had to do what put a lvl'n kit on and they fit perfect and my truck handles waaaay better being wider and obviously having more rubber on the ground.

My 315's give me a pretty good footprint.

I'm running 305-65-17 procomp extreme at's and it gave my truck a really nice stance, and they are on my stock rims.
