Looks to be about a 1"-1 1/4" drop, same as an Eibach prokit, but the Eibach's aren't yellow so it must just be an off brand.

But yes the combo you want will fit fine. I'm running the exact wheel/tire combo that you mentioned and have had no problems at all.

any reason for the 275 up front? i would stick with a skinnier tire up front like a 245 or 255 if i were you. better steering response.

that is just what american muscle recommended for size for the fronts. i dont have a prob with 245 or 255...be cheaper too lol but as long as those tire rim combo will work, then anything smaller will deff work

medrick what you recommending for the front 255/ what / 17? my guess is a 40 series?

only thing againt that is im getting all the stuff from AM and ill be running 2 diff tires for front and back(diff treads as well) and im not too keen on that look.

if i keep the 275's and 315's then i get the Sumitomo's all around

I have 275's in the front and they feel fine to me, had 255's on my old rims, and went 275 on my new rims, i didn't notice that much of a difference, so if thats what you want then go for it.
