its 17x9.5 in the front with a 275/45 and 18x10.5 with a 315/30 bfg drag radial... the front tires look a little small for the rim, i had them on a 9 inch rim and they looked better....

Some sizes are the old tread and some are the new tread. Most of the 15, 16 and 17" tires that people use on F bodies will be the old tread patter. The new tread pattern is usually on the 18" tires. Hope that helps.
