I'm running 17x9 (275/40/17) in front and 17x10.5 (315/40/17) without any problems.

what kind of tires?

I stand corrected 17x9 (275/40/17) in front and 17x10.5 (315/35/17) rear. I am currently using Sumitomo HTRZ.

Hey 04BlueGT do not get sumitomo's. I know their cheap, but their cheap for a reason. If you are looking for traction at least, do not get those

I second that, If you want any kind of traction, then do not get the cheap sumitomo's. I have them and they do not hook for nothing. If you want cheap tires, then yes get them. I got them just to hold me over untill I decide on getting nitto's or just buying some more rims and mounting mickey's on them.

RE: Big tires in the back

would the summuto's hook from a roll though? im ok with it for awhile if they dont hook off the line but i need to be able to have them hook from a 1st gear roll.... (315/35/r17's)
