So you have 10 Spoke SS rims now on your car? If so the proper tire size would be 275/40/17 front and back. 50 would be a little large, and I don't know about availabilty on those. There are plent of tires on the 275/40's. You can if you want to, go with 285/40/17 in the rear. I run that with my stock SS rims, when I'm not sporting the Black ZR1's.

Yeah assuming you got OEM 10 spoke SS wheels 275/40ZR17 is the PERFECT tire for all four wheels . . .
