Like I said, I'm really not worried about the front. The back will be my issue I think.

the front will be fine, i glanced at the offset of the front and wasnt worried about it. the back was what i wanted the measurements on and i think itll work out just fine. i know my wheels work on the 03/04 irs and they have more back spacing than what youll have.

Well tire selection is going to be a bitch too!!! X(... I have the wheel size, offset, back spacing, and amount of lower to worry about... I don't even have a clue of where to start =(

You should be able to run 315s all day long no issue. I mounted some on a cobra just the other day. With that offset, it shouldn't rub...

you worry too damn much... throw some 305s or 315s or even some 335s on them and bolt em up. youll know exactly where to go from there.

I'm guessing that was a joke to basically make them fit LOL.

But seriously wouldn't it be more logical to start with like a 275 lol?

i wouldnt run anything smaller than a 305 on those wheels, although you can go down to a 295. 335s will bulge a lil bit but can fit on those wheels. i always have wanted to run a 325 on my 10.5s cause theyll fit nice and itll look good.

one thing youll wanna think about is how much you drive the car and tire wear. dont buy tires that wont last long if youre going to be driving a lot. tires in those sizes have a limited selection compared to 275s and smaller.

It is my DD... I want a long lasting tread wear... I'm starting to second guess getting 10.5 now.

lol this is exactly why i pulled off the 10th anni cobra wheels on my car and went to some 01 cobra wheels. tires are cheaper for 17x8s lol

you can still get tires that will last you a decent amount of time. i ran nitto 555R's on my wheels and they lasted pretty good. i just got tired of paying for the tires. 245s are cheaper than 315s lol
