I'm looking into running smaller wheels with fatter tires to get as thick a sidewall as I can. What I've seen, a 17x9 with 275/50 fills out pretty nicely. Will this clear the front? I do plan on usuing a 1" spacer on the front.

I'm not totally against putting larger in the back, but I prefer to rotate my tires. I DON'T care about arguing wether that matters or not. *I* want to rotate them so I prefer same size, front to back.

My problem is, I'm having a hard time finding 17" wheel options that aren't either drag wheels, Bullitts (so many Mustangs have them), FR500, or Weld racing.

Anyone know of any other options in 17" that I might consider?

When I was shopping for some drag wheels I noticed the same thing, mostly bullitts out there in 17's. I mounted some 295's on 17x10 rims and love that fat beefy look. I have seen 275's all around, it looked mean.
