I'd get either mt et street radials or a set of slicks then get the mickey thompson front runners. How heavy are those wheels? I've been looking at get a set but don't want to spend the money if they weigh the same as a stock wheel.

My rim has a 5.95" backspacing and is 9 inches wide, your have a 4.5" backspace and is 8" wide....I don't think you need spacers.

I have the same size rim on the back with the same backspacing. As long as your car isn't lowered you can fit a 275/60/15. For the front you should be good but you might want to test fit them. You can probably run as big as 185/65/15 on the front but most guys run 165r15 for skinniers. If you get mt et front runners 26x4.5should fit perfectly.

I know with my car (t-5 with 3.73) a 26" tire is perfect, I wouldn't go much bigger than that.(I'm not sure on width for ya)
