tire sizes
Hey guys, I'm new to the forums and I have a question to ask for the more knolegalbe of you. I have a 2002 GT with bullitt wheels and I want to upgrade to larger diameter tires. How big of a Tire can I put on my car without any aditional modification. I want to install 315/17 in the back and 285/17 in a front with 10.5 in wheels (rear) and 9in wheels (front). Is this possible without flaring the fenders and do i need to upgrade the suspension first???
Thanx to all of you that reply |

the 315's will fit in the rear but the 285's are too much for the front.
most people run a 255 in the front for an after market tire but I prefer the 275. welcome to the forums
