Well, I went against my better judgement and went with the 275/40/17's and they look great and fit well also. There is a slight bulge and I do mean slight. After all the threads and posts I read on here about them not fitting some vehicles I wasn't sure what to do. But after having them installed I really don't see how they can rub, its not even close while driving on the street. I can see however if your at the track and get a good hard launch that they might rub, but I think thats a longshot on stock suspension. Just thought I would let everyone know, there's no problems what so ever. Gonna test them at the track tonight and see if I can improve on that 13.7 time:D

I agree! In addition to the normal shots of the tires, I would be interested in seeing the slight bulge.

Do you think that the same thing could be accomlished with stock 18" wheels? With an 8" wide wheel, I thought one would only want to go to a 255 tire.

I'll get some pics for you. As far as 18" rim I'm not too sure, they might rub.
