275/40/17 on a fox? Need pics.

Anyone running the above tire on a fox? These will be mounted on 2001 bullits. Any rubbing issues?

Did have problems with them hitting the tails w/ the stock studs... added 1/4" spacers and not problems anymore... makes the tire come out more flush w/ the fender too

looks too big in the front IMO ....rear it's killer, I run that size BFG DR on the back and it's got a great stance...255/45 on the front.

I just got 255/40's up front and 275/40's in the back and it looks awesome, even tho my car looks like a POS. I can get some pics of them if you want to.

 

[rdharper02]

heres some of my car. Some rubbing issues on the back with people in the car on big bumps like every other tire though. And the front on dips. I have 275/40/17 all around. Front only rubs on the a arm when I turn all the way, but it has to be on purpose it dosent rub when i do u turns or parking, etc, but thats the rim not the tire.

These are alittle old but all i could find.

Geeze 275s on the front. The 255s on the front of my car rub pretty bad, I'd hate to imagine it with 275s.

Thanks Mob...Think I'm going to have to pick some up for the rear. Is the car lowered any. I havnt decided If I'll run coilovers in the rear or go with Eibachs drag kit (supposed to lower around .5-1 inch).

MAC: still like to see your pics.

795.0: Man you got to take that picture of your car off. I need a cigarette everytime I get done seeing it.

I would love to see 275's shoved under the front...nice as long as you don't have to turn I would think.

I believe that it can be done! What I don't remember is what all was done to make it happen. I remember reading an article about a road course car where 275s were fitted to the front.

I'll have to see if I can find that article again.

the tires are just about the nicest thing on my car right now
