        I'd probably be fitting if you posted your tire size considering this is the "OFFICIAL: Wide Tire Thread".

        New wheels look good by the way. :nice:

                          Black ones.





                          When I fry these current tires Im wondering how big I can go on 17x9s, Ive been looking at other forums but they are mostly muscle car forums asking this question which I do not trust, any input? I currently have 255/40/17s.

                            I have ran a 275/40R17 on a 17x9 before in the past, and they look square-ish. In fact, on my '03 Cobra I ran 275s all the way around on 17x9s and they looked nice without too much of that muscle car 'bulge'.

                              Bump for some more wide tires/wheels?!

                              I should be able to contribute to this thread in 5-7 days according to my tracking info.
