    Since I am not going to be lowering my car should I get a slightly higher profile?

        i think you're going to want 245/45/17's. 40 profile will be too little, especially if you're not lowering the car.

          i've seen 245/40/17's on a non lowered fbody and i think they looked fine. i'm not sure which would be closer to your stock tire height so as to not throw the speedo off to much. don't think you need spacers, lots of people have them on the board, i'm sure someone knows.

            I ordered them today and they guy said to get 255/45/17's. He said its the biggest peice of meat that i can fit in there. They are really nice looking tires, they are the kumhos.
