Mickey Thompson ET Street Radial Tire
I am thinking about buying a set of these tires to use at the track. They are 275/40R17. Does anyone know if they rub the rear finder? And does anyone have stock 17" wheels?

well, im not 100%, but from what im told, the only 275/40/17s that fit on the stock rims are the nittos. i have a set of the street 555 nittos in a 275 size and they fit, but my fender needs to be rolled. they rub, but only when i have a full load of people or stuff in the trunk or i take a speed bump WAYYY too fast. but once again, i cant be 100% about the other brands fitting or not

I daily drive on BFG DRs 275/40/17s and I had my fenders rolled. With the stock springs they would rub slightly on a hard launch at the track. I got Pedders Springs and Konis and now it is rock solid,,no more bounciness from the rear. Pulls 1.60 60fts on the DRs.
