Default 17x10.5 tire options?

What size tire options do i have for this size rim? I want the sidewalls to be nice and square with the lip of the rim and not bubble out or cave in. I know 315 35 17 are the usual but just curious as to other options that won't throw the speedo off too bad. Thanks guys. Also, i got 275 40 17 for the 17x9 rims. Thanks!

Your only option is Nitto 555R's 315/35/17's, you can order them through americanmuscle.com... You will be very happy with the look.... and the hook [8D]

I'm putting 285/40/17 Kumho ASX's on my 10.5" Black Bullitts. Icurrently have 315/35/17 Sumitomos on them, but since I got new tires for the front, I decided to match the back ones with the Kumhos. I've seen the 285's on the 10.5" and they look really good. Perfect fit and a lot less expensive than the 315's.
