255/45r17(26" tall) in back with 205/50r17(25" tall) in front. They are signifigantly lighter than the stock wheels also. When the front tires wear out I'll switch to 215/50r17(25.5" tall) as the 205's are ever so slightly stretched on the 8" wheel.

I have 5/16" raise rear springs and 3/8" lower springs in front.

I think something got lost in the translation from 15" to 17".

I REALLY liked them a lot on a local guy's car in 15", but it almost looks like a rim off of a semi in 17".

They do look waaayyyy better in person. Plus I'm also getting a set of 15's for the track. DD rims and Track rims. Both matching FTW.

I don't know about these. I think these kind of wheels should be left in small diameters, otherwise the purpose is destroyed.

It looks like wheels of some truck :\

i don't care to much for that particular design in 15" or 17". the dragsters look much better, to bad there going bankrupt.
