But as others said if you dont make a ton of power or run a real steep gear, you probably wont justify the 28" rear tire

Well, I'm ordering the 17x9.5 and 15x10 Darkstar wheels today. I'm still not sure on what tires though. If I decide on going with either the Nitto or Mickey Thompson 275/40/17 and 275/50/15 combo, any idea how much wider the rear tires will be compaired to the front tires? I'd love to just say "F" it and do the 275/40/17 and 325/50/15 Nitto combo, but you guys have made some good points about my current gears and power level. With that said, I do plan on doing a turbo build in the near future.

No looking back now. Wheels have been ordered. Now, just need to make my damn mind up on the tires. Suggestions regarding the above ^^^?

The more rear gear you run with a turbo setup the more likely you are to need a 28" tire

Oh and hurry up and get to decidin, I wanna see what a 17x9.5 / 15x10 combo looks like in these wheels

Wheels were ordered just a few hours ago, and should be shipped out either today or tomorrow. I'll post up pictures once they get here. I think it's going to be one bad *** looking setup. I love the way the other guys running 17x4 and 15x10 combos look, so I'd say the 17x9.5's up front will look killer.

I'm going to pull the trigger on tires either later today or early tomorrow. I can get the Nitto 555 275/40/17 and Nitto 555 325/50/15 Drag Radials for $714.00 shipped, which is a hell of a deal. I ultimately think that's the route I'm going to go. It will be fine for the power level I'm at now and be better for when I go turbo.

Can't wait to see the pics. Polished or black?

Went with the Race Star 92 Drag Star Dark Star, which are the black-chrome looking ones. I think they will complement the Pewter color nicely. I've never had a dark wheel before; always had polished wheels.

epic thread lol j/k. Can't wait to see them, although I'm partial to 15's all around with those wheels.
