The GY F1D3 has a reputation of being pretty wide for it's size. So it my look even better.

My TA is running the TTII rims in 9.5/11" with 275 Nitto 555RII autocross fronts and Nitto 555R drag radials in back. The grip is amazing, but the rears have little feel and don't respond well to steering input. I blame the soft sidewalls. I wish Nitto would make the RII in 315. Maybe we could start a petition or something.

The way you presented your question confuses me. Why did you include a random picture while asking me my front tire size?

I've lost faith in the wait.

Sorry about that. I just got off work, and was dead tired when i posted that. I was asking because, in your previous post you said it had a 285/40/17 tire. So, is it a 285 or a 315 in that pic?

A 255 and 285 have the same overall diameter.
I choose the 255 & 285 combo just to stay away from the limited 315 sizes and cost. I think this combo also looks better than the 275 & 285 would. If you run a 275 on the front 9.5" rim it will look more buldged and then a 285 on the rear 11" will look more stretched... Plus they have a different overall diameter
