they are the normal stock SS size wheel. And the tires are 275-40-17. You can go as big as 285 or 295 on those wheels, but 275 is the norm.

595 posts and you don't know what zr1's are? hahah surprising

stock size for 17" wheels was 275/40/17

that's probably what's on those wheels now, but some people run as thin as 245's, while others go to 285's. also, they make those wheels in 11" rears so you can run some pretty wide stuff, although from the pics they don't look like it.
