Multimedia Exchange - Pics of my SS with Nitto 315's/17x9.5 wheel combo

I used to run ProStars but wanted a new look for this year. I swapped my ProStars for a set of 17x11/17x9.5 TT2's, and also acquired a spare pair of 17x9.5's to put Nittos on, in the hopes that they would hook...at least a little.

I have 17x11 TT2's with 315/35/17 Sumitomos for everyday use on the rear, and 275/40/17 Sumitomos on 17x9.5's, for the front. My spares are 17x9.5 TT2's with Nitto 315/35/17 Drag Radials on them...Suspension is cut (1 coil) 1le front springs and hose modded rear springs with Bilstein HD shocks/struts.

Nitto 315/35/17 Drag Radials, Sumitomo 275/40/17's all on 17x9.5" TT2's:

Very Nice!

Thanks!

I like how it looks both ways. SWEET!

Thanks, I was a little worried the Nittos would "look" too narrow, but from most angles, the untrained eye can't tell much difference...which is what I hoped for. ;)

looks awsome!

Thanks. :)

Looking good Bob! I really expected them to "bulge" more, but they are Nittos:eyes:

YOU'RE GOING TO DIE! The tires are way too big for that wheel, they will pop off the bead the second you take a turn. It's extremely dangerous. That wheel is not approved for that tire, and threads like this will not be tolerated!!!!! :eyes:

j/k Car looks good. But don't let the tire nazi catch this or he will delete it.

LOL, thanks. :lol:

Pictures do not lie.

Looks a lot better with the 17x11's out back. very nice :nod:

Thanks. The plan is to get new 315/35 Mickey Thompson Drag Radials for the 17x11's as soon as either (a) the Nittos wear out, or (b) I get disgusted trying to hook with them. (I'm betting on B) :D
