Default Got my tires !!!

Holy crap I got the tires ( 275/40ZR17 Fulda Carats ) for my 17 bullits 2 days ago. I have an old CJ w/mudders in the yard- boy did I start to feel sick when I noticed the tires were the same width as the jeeps! I thought I made a terrible mistake with the sizing for the front wheels, but thanks to knowing that a great majority of diehards from mustangforums recommended this size I waited to have them mounted before giving a verdict: Damn these badboys look sweet! They fit the wheelwell beautifully- and the view fom the back...now that's what a mustang should llok like- not the 15's it came with!!!!
Oh and thanks Cobra for the help with the brand- gotta tell you, as I was driving off to " test " them we got a massive amount of rain and tried as much as I could they held through sharp turns, as well as gunning it from stop.

I think your car is the first car I've ever seen and liked with black rims. I usually HATE black rims, but those look so good with your car.

Thanks guys- believe it or not, I've had the stang for 3 years & this is the first major upgrade ( besides smoked headlights & tint ). I really think I made a good choice with the bullits. Oh, I don't think you guys can notice but I hope I don't flat- I got 2 different locks on each wheel! bwahahahahahaha

What size tires are recommended for 18x9 wheels? I think the ones I have are too small.
