dont rag on me to much


i know many people are gonna ask "why are you only gonna lower the front of your car" ......cuz i like the looks of it ! ha well now that thats out of the way, i would like to know what size tire i should go for in the back if i want a really tall sidewall to fill up the space in the fender, im getting 17 inch cobra y2k's and i know im gonna get 255/45-17 in the front but i have no clue what to look for to fill up the back without getting slicks or anything, would it be like 275/60-17?

A 60 series tire will fly off the bead and any tire shop that sells ya one that size and can see your wheel is retarded. Wal-Mart wouldn't even fuck that up.

Run a 275/40 or if ya can find it, a 35 series...

Why are you only lowering the front of the car? J/K man. I have seen one fox that looked sharp like that.

Yup. That'll be a good combo. I think that is what stangzilla runs. I think.

Kinda reminds me of that black car that was on pinks. The front was lowered like hell. Couldn't even get a pice of sheetmetal under the front. I loved that one
