Hey

I have a stock 2004 GT with the bullit rims. I was wondering if you could put a wider tire with normal wear and safety as if they were still 245/45-17's. I'm not sure, but I think ive seen people with wider numbers on these forums, and looking at the rims themselves they seem too big for the tires on them in the first place.

But if not, thats ok :D

275 are fine, plus it will give you some more rim protection. I had 255's and went back to 245's (wasn't thinking :bang: :bang: ), next time I am wanting to go 275 in back and 255 in front(maybe, we will see how these tires wear w/ the KB, I have a feeling I might want two more tires the same size to swap out when the back ones get bald). :D
