Default Got my TTM's on today

A while back I bought a set of 17x9 chrome Torque Thrust M wheels. I've been saving up for some tires for them and I found out that my friend was selling some that would fit. I went with them because the price was right and got put them on today. I put 275/40 Nitto Drags out back and 255/40 tires up front. I wasn't sure about going with the narrower ones on the 9 inch rims, but I think they look good after getting them on the car. I think the only thing I'm gonna change when they wear out is that I'll probably go with a 255/45 up front next time for a little more sidewall. Overall I'm very pleased with how it came out. This is the first time I've ever bought a set of aftermarket wheels for a car that I'ved owned, so that's cool.

I'll try to have my brother post up some pics later on.

I've seen too many cars with uber wide wheels out back that stick out too far in my opinion. I figured the stock SS size will look great without any fitment problems and I seem to have been right. Also, I don't like the idea of the huge weight that comes with huge wheels. As it it I gained 4 lbs on each rear wheel/tire combo. I'll try to get pics asap.
