well, if yah want the story. i just bought new wheels and tires. then i went to a tire place to make an opt for my front end to be alligned, and saw pretty much brand new toyo proxes for sale like half off, and i didnt even think about my new wheels witch are 17x9 front and 17x10.5 rear. i realized this after i got the tires. so yeah, is it gonna look really weird or will it even fit?

I have that on mine, they look alright, but they are a little stretched out. 315s would look best

i paid 1,140 for wheels and tires. afs cobra r wheels 17x9 front 17x10.5 rear, they came with 275/40/zr17 front tires and 315/35/zr17 rear tires.

then i bought another set of toyo proxes T1-s for 110 bucks a peice, and they are 275/40 all around. i got them for spares i guess but then realized my new wheel size....
