how much tire can I have?

flattusmaximus78 · December 10th, 2006, 04:36 PM

Might sound stupid but would 275/40/17 fit on my car?

HMUSN · December 10th, 2006, 04:53 PM

on your v6 rim

no

flattusmaximus78 · December 10th, 2006, 06:01 PM

No assuming another rim. I mean how much can I fit in the wheel well.

yes, AB has 9" front and 10.5" rear with no modifications to the hubs, wheel wells, ect.

... shit go with 18 x 10.5 's and get wheel spacers 10mm ones at that

I think i'm grabbing some cobra r's off of ebay for a $350 275/40/17 should work.

Wheel spacers can damage your car. I don't recommend them.

and why have 10.5 up front?

there is no need to have 10.5 tires up front

kerry · December 10th, 2006, 11:11 PM

u can rotate them if u have the same size all the way around, i think thats smart

itschristorres8 · December 10th, 2006, 11:17 PM

depending on the rim size then 275/40/17 is good, if the rim is a 17inch rim
alot of cobra R rims are 18.
but that size is the size i run on my rims, i have 17x9 all around

but have smaller tires up front...and due to the tread design i cant rotate any tires unless i want a smaller looking tire in back

Yea, but 10.5 up front will rub. You can rotate them also. Just switch sides.

itschristorres8 · December 10th, 2006, 11:43 PM

10.5 up front is beyond pointless
i wish they actually made kits with 10.5 in back and 8's up front
