Just ordered my deep dish bullitts now need advice on tires
So i finally am in need of new tires so i decided to buy 2 new rims for the rear as well. My question is what tires will fit the 17x10.5 rims i just ordered without having a spacer. My girlfriend got these rims about a year ago for her car and had 275/40/17 on the rear with her deep dish rims with BFGoodrich super sports. Is this a good size to get or can i go a bit bigger on the rear with no rubbing or no need of a spacer. My car is not lowered. Thanks guys.

From what I understand, you can do 315/35-17's and they won't rub. You cannot (and should not) do spacers, or you'll get the Mexican-truck protrusion...
I really think 17x10.5 is an odd size, as the true ideal tire size would actually be somewhere inbetween those two, but no such size exists that would get you the proper overall diameter.

sorry guys i forgot to mention my car is driven year round and I live in Chicago, i looked on discount tire and all the 315 are DR's and thats not going to be too fun in rain and snow hahah is there anything in between those? Also what is a good reliable all year round tire to go with? my budget for all four tires is 500-700 give or take some. im sticking with 245/45 on front cuz thats what i originally have
