Check out a used tire shop. Maybe they can mount one for you. The 315 is 12.4 inches wide. Measure the wheel well. You may not even have the space. Be careful about going so large. It may rub when cornering hard. My 67 Gto fits 275 with 5.25 bs and I have 1.25 inches on each side to spare. Another option for buying the tire is from Costco. They have a wicked good return policy.

Forgot to mention craigslist. Some one might have a roller for sale.

Depending how low the car sits and which manufactured 315 your trying to run. I run a 305/30r19 and it rubs under hard cornering. I have seen 315's from a few manufactures that are the same size as a 295.
I would get the tire you want & mount it to see what your working with. Your car may need inner fender modifications or simply just rolling the outer lips. Good luck
