Well nothing has changed. If you are running 315s on an '09 or '10 H3 I-5 then you will still notice it robbing power but you might be able to make that up with a PCM tune. Others have so if you really want to go the 315 route this is an option. I chose 295/75/16s as an in-between choice between 285s and 315s. I am very happy with not only the look but the performance as well. I do get rub on full turns as well and I am leveled and have the extended bilstein front shocks and 1/2" bump stops.

I ran my 315's for a while without leveling and it was fine. One thing of note, before I leveled, I had no rubbing at all when turning. After I leveled the front is when I started get slight rubbing on the sway bar at full lock. This is normal from the front end angles changing, and is nothing to worry about.

Read this thread, it has all the info you need.

Hey Bassman... Did you add extended bump stops after you leveled it?

I think I replied to your thread, but it seems you can't make up your mind. I went from a Mustang GT to my 1st truck, rig, SUV or whatever you want to call it. I felt in love with the way 315s looked on a bunch of photos i looked at and that's why i got them on my H3. I don't have a I5 so I can't tell you much about power, but I get no rubbing at all. I have not done anything other than tires.

however, tomorrow i'm getting the Trail Duty kit and I'm planning to install it. Good luck with whatever you end up getting.
