pics of cars with 17 X 10.5 rear please

donny82277 · February 16th, 2007, 08:56 PM

i am looking for pics of 17" rims 10.5 in the back.
I am thinking of selling my 18's for 17's with 10.5 in the backs. I know they will look good but i just want pics to confirm.

why go down from 17s, you could just get 10s in the back with 18s

neckbonekat · February 17th, 2007, 12:10 AM

Just out of curiosity why would you go back down to 17"? Check ebay. They have plenty of 2 wheel deals if yoou want to go with 18x10 or mis match deals if you want a whole new set of 17".

had to do it

raceruler03 · February 17th, 2007, 11:50 AM

that car looks so hot from the front

donny82277 · February 17th, 2007, 11:58 AM

I want to go with 17's mainly for tire price but also for a little better traction. I can get 315/35ZR17's for 100.00 ea. and the 18's that are at leat 305-315 wide are $250+ per tire.

donny82277 · February 17th, 2007, 11:59 AM

thanks for all of the pics by the way!!! great help!!

raceruler03 · February 17th, 2007, 11:59 AM

yeah, but what kind of tires are you talking about for 17s that are 100 a piece.

talking about traction- i had 315mm sumitomos on the rear (107 a piece) but they never would hook. and they wore out quickly (mainly due to weekly track visits for 3 months), but now i have 315/35/17 bfgoodrich t/a drag radial 2s and they are 157 a piece, but cannot beat the driveability and traction. they alone cut .15 off my 60'!

raceruler03 · February 17th, 2007, 12:03 PM

yeah bfgs are always the way to go. Sumitomos have very little tread life on them I think the life expectancy of them is supposed to be like 15000 miles without spining them at all.

yeah, i got 12k out of mine and i made them last til wear lines in tread.

you can get better drag radials in a 17" wheel than 18" wheel, but if you plan on putting street tires on and never seeing track time, the 18s should be fine...

raceruler03 · February 17th, 2007, 12:12 PM

the 17s just get a little better traction, one of the guys in my car club has an 04 mach one with 18s and he hits the same times he did with 17s, of course they were drag radials on the 17s and he has them on his 18s.

neckbonekat · February 17th, 2007, 01:35 PM

Matrix, where in the hell do you live that you can park your car in the middle of the road, get out and snap pic during the middle of the day? My car would be totaled if I tried that. LOL
