  • Do y'all think this would look strange??

    I bought (2) 275-40-17' for my new rims, but can't find an exact match for the other two. I found 2 the same brand for a really good price, but they are 255-45-17's, that I'll put on the front if I buy 'em.
    My question is, do you think it would look okay like that, or should I buy the 275 for all corners??
    I want the 275's all around, but money is a little tight right now...

      I think it would look fine. I think it would give it a 'meaner' look.

              On a different note, I have sumitomo htr + tires on my car and the rears have gone to crap (in under a year with no burnouts) The fronts are fine, but i don't want to replace them with the same tires. I was thinking about puttin HTRZs in the back or nittos. Do you think my car would look really off with different tires in the front or back? I don't think it would really matter would it? Or should I just do same tires? I really dont' like the HTR+s though.

                well if your gonna get Nittos in the back you'll just look like every other F-Body that goes to the track...regular tires up front and some DR's/ET Streets on the back...
