Well it's Sort of related to Suspension
 

The rig I just aquired has a brand new set of Wheel Vintiques Corvette Rally's
still in the boxes, he never opened them, he has bags on the front and rear, I
heard him say in a thread it had the "Tall" cups in the front so it could go a lil
lower, and I got a c-notch kit w/ it for the rear, not installed yet, finally here
is my question, the rims are 17 x 8, what size tires would you run on them?

:fb:

17x8! I wish! Man, I would love to get my mits on those.

Depending on how low you want it, a 245x60/17 would fit with a nice look. Not sure what size you run now though.

Yep. That would be the perfect look.

Im gonna say with the airride you are probably gonna want to go with a 50 series tire. Maybe a 255/50/17

I meant what you have on the truck now vs. what size to put on the 17's. I'm a fan of trying to fill the wheel well as best I can, so you can use a tire clac to figure what size would give you the same "look" with less rubber.

Hope that makes sense.

Nitto brand 255/50-17 is what I run on the front of my blazer. Check with Discount Tire,... they are fairly cheap.

im runnin 245/40/17 on the frt of my truck but a 245/45/17 will work but i went with a shorter tire in the frt thinkin that i would have tire problems clearin the frt fenders like i did when i had 45 series in the frt but just depends on how low u want to go and if u goin to take the frt fenders out or not

Not really concerned with brand right off the bat, my buddy's shop has 17's
for $35 a piece cash mounted and balanced, just wanting to get a feel for
the look of it before I go spend alot on New tires, but his sizes really vary.
