Which ones of those sizes should I go with on a 17x9" rim? I don't want to run 275 cause I think it's too big of a size or 245 cause it's too small so I want the one in the middle(255) but don't know if I should go with 45 or 40. Thanks.
255/45 17 or 255/40 17???

negatory julio..........40 series is WAY more popular for a 255 than 45 series....trust me man get the 40 series, they look a lot better too......1105 said:
Thanks guys. I should've said this earlier but this will be for the front tires. I will be running 315/35 17(Nitto Drs) in the rear. I just don't want the fronts to look like they have too much sidewall compare to the rears, if you know what I mean. Thanks again.

I have the 255/45's on the front of mine, and I can't tell the difference in sidewall height with the 275/40's in the rear. I agree with those who say a 45-series will fill-up the wheel well better. Plus the ride might be a little less harsh since there will be more sidewall give on a 45 than a 40 over bumps. On the other hand, I don't think a 275 looks too wide for the front. In fact I think it looks awsome.
