I'm getting a boat load of stuff done on my car next month and was wondering if I should also upgrade the wheels, or at least the tires. I'll hopefully be getting around 425 RWHP or so. At the very least, I want to get some Nitto 555R 275/40/17 on the rear. Would it be okay to leave the stock F1's on the front for now or should I stick maybe some of the 555s on the front? My other option is getting some 17x11 ZR1s for the rear. I assume I would have to also get the 17x9.5 ZR1's for the front since they wouldn't look the same. I could then get some 315's for the rear. Would this be overkill? I'm guessing I don't really need to do this and the 275/40/17 Nitto 555R will give me all the traction I need. Any advice (besides keeping my questions shorter <img border="0" title="" alt="[Roll Eyes]" src="images/icons/rolleyes.gif" /> )?? Thanks!
