^^^^ hey Frank, what size rear tire you got going on in your signature? Looks very nice, to say the least.

Please release a 17x11/9.5 combo. 18's will make my car ride too tall and 9.5 is not wide enough for the rear. You make the ZR1's in that size, so what stops you from making them?

edit... a search yielded you are in fact releasing them. Thank you so much.

I know its a 26" tire... but I've just noticed on most cars for some reason a switch from a 17" to an 18" makes it ride a little taller... maybe its just my mind playing tricks on me. I figured a 30 series tire would be more correct for 18" diameter though for a 26" tire look.

I have 18x10.5 all the way around on mine. and a 295/35 front and 335/30 rear.... i think the rears look to have more sidewall than the fronts personally

Quite frankly....I'm delighted to see the 335 aren't bulging like I would imagine. Looks real good to me. Hmmm....nitto 335

there is another member on here that has the hoosier drag radials in 335.... his look great as well. im probably going to have the MT 335 DR on as soon as they get these dang 18x9.5 done... and i can get my front tires off of the 10.5 rim and get the MT on them

Stock 275/40/17 = 25.6" tire

275/35/18 = 25.6" tire

O look at that... Same size in tallness!

There are tire caculators that you can play with that will give you all the info you need
