No, i run a 18x9 up front with the 275, I'm pretty sure on the stock 17x8 245/45/17 is the biggest you can fit on the front, someone correct me if I'm wrong.

you won't be disappointed! The tires and wheels are ready to put on the car as soon as you get them from AM (except for the TPS) I included the TPS in them so no waiting to slap them on and laugh through the corners.

I have 245's up front and 315's out back, I think it looks
mean. I had 275's up front and couldnt stand the way it made the car follow the road and pull.

My factory wheels had more of a textured metallic as opposed to AM wheels which were just metallic. I actually came across an article somewhere showing the different finishes of the factory wheels for the new edges (I think the bullitts were available 01-04?).

+1. When i bought my car it came with an additonal 3 bullit rims (aside from the 4 on the car) and they were different shades. When i ordered my 10.5 in rims for the rear i just picked the 2 rims that were closest in color to the 10.5 rears. It wasnt noticeable unless you were looking for it.
