Default zr1s, stranos, what size tires?
so, if i was to get 17/9.5 zr1s all around, and strano springs, what size tires would look best, and should i got slightly larger in back? any feedback is good and pictures are also really helpful.

285's is the widest tire for a 9.5 wheel.

Im running 17x9.5s all around on my 02, and the 285/40 fits really nice on the back.

275 is about the biggest most folks recommend..shouldnt have any problems with them fitting...mine is lowered and every once in a blue moon it will hit the inner fender well but its not enough to do anything about
