Why the 275s? I have the 315s on my 10-1/2" rear FR500s. I just bought the 555Rs this summer so I'm still in test mode.

275 is the max and proper size for a 17x9 inch wheel on these cars. Anything bigger bulges and look horrible IMO.

Okay, I was thinking you had 10-1/2" rears.

It's time to pull my summer wheels off and put the stock with Blizzaks back on... sucks.

I have these tires front and rear (315 and 275) and they make my car handle amazing and still bite hard. I have a street car so I needed something for that.

I don't drag race on my DR's. I use to have street tires on the car when I first put nitrous on it. I almost wrecked the car when I sprayed it in 2nd. The car went completely sideways. I went straight home and ordered some 555R's. My 555R's are wore out now and I'm thinking about doing NT-05R's out back with NT-05's up front.

The NT-05R's will wear out way faster than the NT555R's on the street. Just saying

Handz I took your advice and yesterday I ordered a set of NT05's - 275/40 up front, 315/35 out back (17")...can't wait til they are on - my Sumi's have sucked since day 1.

I'm adding 4.10 gears and new Brembo rotors with Hawk pads - so I'll be going, stopping and turning with a big grin on my face!
