tire wheel help asap

[jdetten]

i am going to get some 17x 9.5 inch wheels and some 17x11 inch wheels and was wondering if 275/40/17 front and 285/40/17 will fit thease wheels

Yes they will fit

Those tires will be roughly 1/2" different in overall height from one another which may mess with your ABS. You could run 315's out back and they'd be OK.

285s are too narrow for an 11 inch wheel in my opinion.

 

[jdetten]

what about 255/40/17 front and 315/35/17 rear

 

[Killercanary]

Nope, the 255/40 is only 25" high and the 315 is near 25.7. I was just in this situation myself and had to go with 245-45-17 to match my 315-35-17. Look on nitto's site at their tire sizes, it shows the different sizes and their overall diameter. It will help steer you in the right direction.

so would 245 45 17 fit on a 17x9.5 wheel

They fit but they look like a$$ IMO. 245 45 17, 275 40 17 and 315 35 17 are all the same hight. I had 245's on 9.5's but didn't like how it looked so I went with 275's. I liked the look but they would rub the swaybar and I didn't like the way the car drove (at least for me). One of my 17X9.5's was faulty so I got them to replace it with a 17X8 and they sold me another at cost ($200). So I went with the stock 245's up front. The car looks and drives great.
