I just ordered a set of the 10th anniversary wheels, 17x9 and 17x10s for the rear, what would be better for the rears? The 275/40/17's or maybe 315/35/17's? I already have the fenders rolled and the inside massaged for some draglites I had before. Any of you guys running the 315's?

Thanks

My buddies car has them.

Rolled fenders and heavy messaging on the inners and it's still close but does indeed work.

M/T DR btw, may be an easier fit with another brand tire.

17x10-11 fit 315's well, but the I think for a 335 you would need a 11.5-12.0 to make it fit right.

Anyways, wider in the back looks so badass.

Looks good! I have my battery kill switch where yours is. My car was a race only but now is street and I want to keep the switch. What do you do about your tag? Are going going to drill a hole in it?
