I have them and like them. I am running the stock size 274/40-17 on a 17x9.5" rim.

i have been running the 275/40/17 tires for about 1 year now. NO complaints at all. I have driven in the rain at the track everything. The best street tire out there!!!!

you will hear nothing but good things about these tires. A 275 would be perfect on a 9.5 inch wide riom.

I run 285's on mine. They are a nice street tire that does all types of driving well for a street tire.

I've got 275/40's on 17 X 9's on the front and 315/35's on 17 X 11's on the back and they're a great tire.

They don't have much traction when the pavement is cold if you live in cooler areas but when it's warm they stick like **** to a wool blanket.

You know what my response will be!!!! 275/40/17 Just run this size, you wont have any problems. Trust me you are going to love them. Just make sure who ever puts your tires on that they clean the inside of the wheels very very well so they seal up. I had to take mine back a few times because they werent sealing right. I run 32psi in the front and 33psi in the rears. I like this cause you use more of the center of the tires. Oh yeah and make sure they put the weights on the inside of the wheels. Now go spend that 1k.
