Want 17's Can my 92' Have Them?

[rseifert]

Tires are shot and im thinkin of getting 17" rims for my 92. It is still 4 lug and I dont want to bother converting. I have the Tokico Shocks/struts/springs kit on my car that lowered it somewhat (dont remember exact). If i get 17 inchers what tire size can I run w/out rubbing and modifications? Thanks

I run 17x9 Cobra R's with no problems at all. I run 275/40R17's in the rear and 255/40R17's in the front.

i have 18 inch polo wheels w/ nitto tires works 10 times better than stock

i also have the 17x9 cobras and i run 245/45/17.they only rub when the wheel is turned to a complete lock but this could be because my rack my be missing the rack limiters.if i had to do again i would definitely go with the 255/40 front and 275/40 rears.

I have a '92 GT and I have 17" x 9" rims. I have lowered it with coilovers in front and H&R race springs in back. I have no rubbing of tires with 245/45's.

i have 18" cobra's, car is lowered with fms springs in front, eibach pro in rear with no problems.

im running 245/40 front, 275/40 rears. ill second the 255 front tire, i have some 255's sitting in my garage which i want to get transfered over soon. the 245 has a lip on the rim, it is slightly too small so the sidewall has to stretch to fit and it looks kind of weird.

you will rub in the front with 9" rims unless you get some sort of spacers or a limiter. you will also be limited to tire sizes in the rear unless you remove/flip your quad shocks. after that is done you can go up to a 275.

the rims on my car a 17s. I run 275/40 in rear and 245/45 in front. works sweet. Just rubs a little if you turn the wheel all the way

17s and 18s work on a fox but you may have to take off your quad shocks.

I have 17's with 255/40's out back and 235/45's up front. No problem up front, but the back I had to roll the fender lips, but I have sn95 rear rake setup tho. After I use up the rears, I plan on stepping up to 275's.
