Need some advice on tires. Got my new wheels today. Going with 17" chrome bullits. Now to buy some tires. Looking at Nitto 450 255/50 front and 275/50 rear. That will be a 27.1" front and a 27.9" rear. How do you think that is going to look. I am also planning on going with the Steeda sport springs. Not looking for the low profile look or ride but not looking for that SUV look either. Any put that combination of tires and wheels on yet. Thanks.

Not planning on rotating yours tires? I have BF Goodrich G-Force T/A KDWS P255/50/17s all around and couldn't be happier. Don't need to recalibrate your speedo either. Fit perfectly on 8" wheels too.

 

The not rotating tires is something to consider. I have 9" wheels so should still look and fit great. Thanks.

 

ben..where do you bought your wheels and what is the offset?

 

So do you already have your rims? If you do I assume you have different width (ie 17x8 and 17x10). I prefer the look of wider tires on the back. You are not planning on installing the 275's on the stock rims are you?

 

didn't you already post the exact same question.

 

Topics merged.

 

I do already have the rims. They are 17x9 front and rear so can go with the 255 or 275s. Talked to Steeda today. They recommend going for the 255s all around and lowering it with sports springs.

 

They most likely suggest sticking with the same size so you can rotate them. I went with 285's in the rear and 255's in the front. I am not worried about rotating them since they are for summer use only.
