I have been Looking at getting new wheels for my mustang and have been doing alot of forum and google searching. First I was going to go with 17x10.5 with 315's in the rear and 17x9's with 265's in the front but I did not like the choices or the prices of 315's so I thought about going 17x9's all around with 265's all around but then after searching I found that my speedo will be screwed up and I will get bad tramlining, my mustang is my every day driver and I do not want to have to be fighting my car all the time. So I think I want to go with 17x9's in the rear with 275's and 17x8's in the front with 245's. Anyone else on here run this setup? do you have pics so I can see how it will look? also what exact tire size will I want 275/?/17 245/?/17 I have 245's all around right now so I think If i run 245's with the new wheels I should not get much tramlining. So do you guys think I should do this setup or go with 17x9's all around, I just dont know how bad the tramlining will be. these are the wheels I want and a pic of my car.

Get 17x9's all the way around, or if you REALLY want to make the right decision, get 17x10.5's in the back.

Argument in picture form:


And just incase you say "but its a cobra," here's my gt:

I don't understand how 17x10.5 is the right decision. It depends on the person and what they need from it.

It will look just fine. 245 in front and 275 in back is what I prefer on my car. 315's just aren't for me.

it depends on what you want. bigger tires are more expensive. Staggered means you cant rotate...again more expensive. If you like the meaty look out back then go with wider tires. if you drive many miles then cost is def something to consider. Tires are not cheap and being able to rotate is a plus.

what about 18's? The stock 17's just don't seem to fill the wheel well, even after being lowered.

The collective have made their decision... 10.5"s PERIOD!

if you go 275 17 inch rim the you want the tire size to be 275/40/17. it will not screw up ur speedo since the circumference of the tire is almost identical. google tire calculator and it will tell you what you want to know. i think we have one on the forums somewhere to lazy to check though. so 275 all the way around is my choice
