Wheel Help

I plan on getting these wheels to put on my 85 with the 5 lug conversion

And need to know what size tire would fit best.

Thanks

245/45/17 all around but u could go wider out back if u wanted.

 

[marine_2003]

How much wider out back?

 

[1SLO306]

275, maybe even wider with some mods

 

[marine_2003]

So i should be able to fit a 275 with no problems?

 

[1SLO306]

should, might have to flip or remove the quads if u have them

 

[marine_2003]

no quads, i am looking at BF Goodrich Drag Radials and Mickey Thompson Drag Radials, along with the Nitto 555DR's in a 275 40 17
