you could probably get 275's on it no problem. Fronts are already rolled.

You have a 9.5 inch front wheel , why not ???? The largest you can do int he front is normally a 285 so a 275 should fit fine and have a better stagger. Probably better stagger for the rear tires you want to run.

I just would think naturally (with very little experience, mind you) that wider tires up front would handle worse. 275 would really fit? that just seems so weird to me. can anyone list pros and cons for me?


damn, so much for ordering tires tomorrow! but i want to get it right, so it is worth the wait

Although you're right on the last part, I hated Nitto 555's so much, that I may never buy another Nitto street tire again.

If i bought 555's i would probably be in the same boat, i've driven i8acobra's car with them and have to agree the 555's suck , they suck bad.
