Tire size - stock wheels
This has probably been asked many times, but I cant seem to find the answer. Some please reply, or point me to the thread that answers the question:
"What is the widest tire that will fit comfortably on the stock wheels"? I want as much tire as I can get on the rear without buying different wheels, unless I find some wheels I really like better than stock. And how about 18" wheels that have the stock look. Who sells them? Ok, that was 2 questions but I just couldn't help myself.  Thanks.

Re: Tire size - stock wheels
275-40-17's will fit! Don't let anyone tell you otherwise...the son is running that size on his stock rims with Pirelli P Zero Neros...just a slight more sidewall bulge if you look close but they really look nice on there and stick like glue on the road. Don't worry about it if you want to do it...I'll see if I can find any pics in a minute.
Ignore the damage on the front bumper...he got hit in a parking lot...it will be fixed soon

Re: Tire size - stock wheels
Good choice that staggered size will look great! You will like the 275's on the back...
Hey I see you put the Magnapacks on...were they responsible for all the increase in HP??? We want to do those or Borla Stingers next...how do you like the sound? We will stay stock cats & H pipe for now.
