With these tires:
http://www.lethalperformance.com/pag...275-40-18.html

Are these tires too big for all 4 ? My car is black. What do you think

acehogg69 · January 8th, 2007, 12:29 PM

Those will look sharp. There are a few guys around running 20's with a 1-2 drop and they look nice. They have a black rim with chrome lip. They look sharp on black. I am looking at 18's myself from the 17 stock. Those are sharp I have been looking everywhere for that types.

TDog · January 8th, 2007, 12:40 PM

i have 17's now. I really like the 18 look. 20 is good..but not me. Im just worried that those 275 40's on all 4 rims will be too big.

acehogg69 · January 8th, 2007, 12:43 PM

Nahh I think it will look good. I was looking at some Foose rims but I like the stock look and those are priced good. A guy I work with has 18's on his. I am not sure what tire size but I like those over the 17's.

miafan · January 8th, 2007, 02:09 PM

those tires are not to big for a 9 in. wheel, i've had 285's on a 9 in. wheel for about 4 years on my 98 gt. they had a little trouble getting them on but it worked out. 275's are perfect. i have an 07 black gt now and i've got a couple styles picked out so far, there the same bullits your looking at but in chrome or silver and i like the fr500's deep dish chrome or silver. i'm going with 18x9's with 255's (toyos) in front and 18x10's w/295's (goodyear gsd3's) in back. even if you go with 18x9's all the way around i would do 245's or 255's in front and 275's in back. unless of course you want to rotate then you'll want the same.

275 is what is supposed to go on a 18x9 rim. Thats what i run on my car... it will fit fine.

TDog · January 8th, 2007, 03:07 PM

SUper. Yes, I was just thinking that a 275 on the front would look bad on the 07(too wide). Maybe ill get the 275/40's just on the back, and drop 255/40's on the front.

TDog · January 8th, 2007, 03:17 PM

i just found these on e-bay. nice.

go to google and type in "american racing rogue rims" and you will find lots of web sites that sell them. the price varies alot on them. You can also find them on ebay. The brand name is american racing and design is called rogue.

MustangMatt · January 8th, 2007, 09:32 PM

Tdog, the rims you showed the link for from eBay are for 94-04 and will not fit your 07.

TDog · January 8th, 2007, 09:37 PM

yes, just noticed. Is it a lug change ?

gtrules46 · January 8th, 2007, 09:48 PM
