Default RE: If you had this?

265/35-17 for the front

315/30-17 for the rear, or 315/35-17, whichever is easier to find and cheaper.

How funny you've asked this question, I've had two sets of black bullitts 17x9 and 17x10.5 in my garage since December. I finally (yesterday) got my new tires that will be mounted and balanced on Thursday. After reading many posts on this forum, I decided to go with 315/35/17 for the 17x10.5's and 275/40/17 for the 17x9's, I'll let you know how they look by the end of this week. One more quick note if I didn't read it or see pictures of it, I'd never guess that the 315's would ever fit the back of a Mustang.
