Default Help: Have to pick one...

Ok,

I have my 17X10.5 wheels here (deepdish)
Both tires will fit on the 10.5
Which do you suggest?



Its either the Mickey Thomps (not the ET STREETS... these are the radials... click link to see) 275/40/17 [largest they make]

or its the BF GOODs T/A Drag Radials... 315/35/17 (click link to see)

Mickey Thomps!!


Im getting nitto 555's in the back
but in the front I have 18x9 rims, what would be a good tire to get up for a good price.

Yeah like $280... But tires are one of the most important things to buy for your car. Its the only thing keeping your car in contact with the road and under control. So get the best.
