Wheel Questions

[95GTV8]

I'm looking @ some 17inch 95 Cobra R rims. What type of width is best? My car is mainly on the street. 17x9 and 17x10.5? What are some good combos? Thanks.

the only thing bought the 17x9 and 17x10.5 is that u can't rotate ur tires.. but it s a very popular combo to go with.. or 17x9 f &r

ok, w/ the 17x9 f/r can i rotate my tires? What do i sacrifice by going all 17x9 instead of 17x9 by 17x10.5

All you sacrifice is looks. 17x9 is wide enough for me. But I don't like the 315 tire out back so I'm partial.

I have a DFG GT with black Cobra R's with deep dish out back (17x9 front, 17x10.5 rear) with 315's. I LOVE them. Heres some pics. I coulndt really get a good shot of the back tires, they look alot smaller than they are in the pics.

One thing I could never understand why people do it is get 17x9 in rims all the way around and put different size tires on the back and front. You cant rotate them, and might as well have went balls to the wall and got the DD. My car is my daily driver and I love my huge ass tires.

EDIT: I think my wheels would look absolutely SICK on your car.

I'd stick with 17x9's all around. Being able to rotate your tires is pretty nice. Plus it will be cheaper.
