For the 9" wide, I wouldnt go any wider than a 285 width. 275 preferable. I cant stand these tires on my car now...not nearly wide enough. Thank god i didnt actually buy these ones. They came with the wheels. Tax return=335/30-18 BFG KDW N/T's and bilsteins maybe some MM c/c plates or some H&R SS springs to replace the prokits. Who knows.

I know right?! But find me a 30+ degree day in southern PA recently and i would have washed it. But its too cold. Might try to wash it at my dad's work sometime this week or something. Its just too darn cold. If you'd see the car in person, you'd probably shake your head in shame. Hope to wash it before i go back to school next week so she will be looking sexy for when i roll up with my new wheels.

Haha yea, she gets driven year round. She has 112k on her clock, but the motor was replaced 20k ago because the old one started knocking. By the time we bought the other motor(used with 32k on it), we found out that the original motor just had a case of the carbon knock. But replaced it anyways. But i need to get her detailed up in the spring. This will be the first year that my car will actually look presentable. Summers past she had some cosmetic flaws that wouldnt make her show worthy. Now that they are mostly taken care of, show time
