The Contis and now (fortunately) the PS2s are your two 315 options available to you........both incredibly expensive tires.

On the whole "lip" discussion guys....keep in mind it's all about offset on a particular wheel design.....the result of that is a lip, not the other way around. When you are talking about clearance issues, you also need to bring ride height & suspension type into the equation.
In the back, for instance, if you have an aggresive offset & low ride height going (say 30 mm or whatever) those 315s may even require fender prep.........or get the car up in the air, no problem. The PS2s are also just a tad wider than the Contis if you're really calling it close.
