Just about everyone does.

I'm running 255/45-17 out front, 275/4-17 out back.



I haven't snapped any "teaser" shots yet, with the wheels on now, but they look f'n sweet.

More than one person has asked (or at least is curious), what the 275's look like mounted on the car. Well, here ya go.

I snapped two pics tonight before today's "Rotor Seasoning" session:

Quarter Panel Shot:


And here is the full rear shot (showing the width of the tread nicely).


I did not roll my fenders, and the quad shocks are flipped, but still installed.

The nice thing about these, is that they fill out the fender well really nice. Any wider would be too wide.
