Anyone know if the 17x11 TTIIs will fit? I want to do 315s in the back, but the only rim that will work is that size. Anyone have any experience with them, or any pics if possible?

Pretty sure you'll be fine...I've seen a few 99+ with the 315 on a 17 x 11 TT II.

No problem fitting that tire in there...so providing it's the proper back-spacing on the wheel..you should be fine.

According to the American Racing website application guide these are your choices......

pn: 50571167 is listed as the 17x11 that will fit your car. It has 7" backspacing.

pn: 50579567 is also listed as a 17x9.5 that you can use. It has 6 3/8" backspace

And finally we have pn: 5057867 which is a 17x8 wheel with 5 1/2" backspace

yes they will work...u might have to remove or flip your quad shocks around...but the 11" rim will work

I have a set with 9.5" in the rears....wish I had the 11"..so if for some reason you can't get yours to fit..I'll trade with you

What do you run up front? Can you post some pics? I went to Silver State page, saw you're car in the members page. Looks good, but I want to see more.

Those would look KICK A*S on my black w/ black leather 98 GT. It needs some shinny to offset all the black. If I get the new job I'm up for I might buy a set.

Here's a few pic's of the TT 2's on my car. 17x8 w/ 255/17R40 on front and 17x9.5 w/ 285/17R45 on back.




Waddaya think?

Oh, and 17x11's with 315's on back will fit. I was going to get that size for mine and know of someone that had that size rim on the back. You might have an issue if your car is really low. I was told I might have to roll the lip of my fender if I got the tire's that wide, but only if the car went any lower than it was. I'll see if I can find pic's of buddies car.

Sharp!!! I had a 2000 V6 for 3 years. It was silver. I hit a deer put a Steeda cowl hood on it. Always wanted to put those wheels on it. Had MAC dual exhaust kit too. Great car, but no GT.
