15" wheels/what tires?

[NightLife]

looking into getting some weld racing wheels 15x9 in the rear and 15x5? or 15x7 in the front.

on the back would go nitto 555R in 275/50/15

and not to sure what size tire in the front...it will be daily driven and used somewhat on the highway so I dont want skinnies up front and affect the handling to bad...or braking.

so the question is what size wheels/tires in the front and what brand?

ETA: I know the welds are alot lighter...any idea how much lighter than the stock stuff?
Thinking maybe 10-15 pounds a wheel/tire?....so 50-60 lb weight reduction?

just go with a 245/55 in the front and that should be aight in the rear i would recommend going to a 15x8 just so the bead will seat better when the car is on the road. im using a weld draglite 90 series 15x8 with a BFG drag radial 275/50 in the rear
