Need Help Deciding! I am having trouble deciding which route to take with my tire purchase. My old ones need to replace, so I am going buy 17inch American Racing Torq Trust M.
The car is a 02 Camaro and it is a DD for right now for about another year or so. I am stuck on decided if to keep all 4 corners the same or go with the 10.5 inch rear wheel. I do like the deep dish look of the wheel. I would like to go with 315s in the rear and 275 up front, how particle would that be for a DD? Or would going 285 in the rear be better? If I went with 285 in the rear, what should I go with in the front? Also what would be a good summer street tire, the car will probably see some track use just not much. It will also be driven in the rain.

The 10.5 rears look way better. Gives the car a nice stance.
285's are too skinny for that wheel. They will fit, but they will be stretched. A 315 is the optimal size. 275's for the front.

do take it to the track? looking for just performance on the street? because its a daily driver you also want to make sure that you get great wet performance. when i had C5s all the way around i was in the same boat. i went with nitto 555r because it was the best a year ago IMO for a good street tire that performed better than others at the track, i havent tried the rew 5rs (i believe is the name) but doesnt look like it could push the water away all that well when you look at the tread
