Need help with tire size for 10.5 rim on lowered car I need to know what size tire I can run on my car. I ordered a set of rims that are 17x9.5 and 17x10.5. Have a brand new set of tires for the front 275/40/17 but need to buy a set for the rear. My car is lowered on eibach sportlines. I want to know what size tire I can run for the rear that wont cause any issues that I can bolt up and go. Dont really want to cut/beat on the car. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

what are your front tires? its better to keep the same tread pattern.
certain 315/35 tires run narrower than others (like Nitto's). ideally you would put a 315 on a 11" rim though.
like said above, it depends on you offset and the suspension whether or not you will need to BFH or roll the fenders
