I ran a 275/50-17 Nitto tire on a 9.5 inch rim. Also a 255/50-17 on an 8 inch tire in the front. I got the tires from Discount Tire Direct. Sorry no pics.

well i those are all awesome...but not quite what i had in mind.
I was really trying to find a set of tires that would have an almost pro street tire that would fit a 17x9 for the back and a little one on a 15x8 for the front... I was thinking in the area of a 305/60R17 for the back and 235/65R15 for the front...the problem is finding the sizes in the same brand and type of tire..... I would really love to see what this would look like... All the help is greatly appreciated

Who makes the 305/60/17? Perhaps they have a different line of tires that you could find the front size you seek? At least that way your using the same brand.... just maybe not exact matching treads.
