Default buyin some tires

I'm going to be ordering some tires this week and i need to know what sizes to get. the car has 17x9 konig villains with 6 inch backspace all around, adjustable upr control arms andcoil overs with 96+ spindles, lowered2 inches.I'm thinking about 555r's for the back, whats a good performance tire for the front? also i don't mind doing small modifacations like lip rollingto allow fora larger tire size.


Thanks

Why not grab some 555 extremes for the front. It'll keep your tires sort of matched and the tread will look the same basically also. They're pretty cheap too, that's what I got on mine. (555 Extremes all the way around)
