Default 17x10.5 ALl the way around????

Is 17x10.5 all the way around worth while, have seen a few like this is there any problems? Would like to go with 315,s in the rear "only", what would be a good size for the front.

Do 10.5's cause any interferance problems on the front???

315's all the way around has been done, you'll have to search though because i dont remember who did it. If you really want to do this, then do 295's, or 285's upfront, and thn 315's out back. Just out of curiosity, what wheels do you have that are 17x10.5's?

Well I will have to edit the thread, I dont want to do 315,s up front, just in the rear. Looking for a good size for the front. What are the most used in the front? I really don't want the skinny mismatched look between the front and the rear. So what are the thoughts on 285,s 295,s in the front. Not that much of a difference between the two. But a big change from a stock 275.
As for rims undecided at this point, either way I would like to try and keep them the same size. That is why I was think of going with a 17x10.5 on all 4 vs 17x11 rear and something different in the front.

Either 285's or 295's will not look skinny on the wheels. I was just saying that 315s are possible so a smaller is well within the realm of possiblities, sorry didnt mean to make it sound like thats what you were doing. Not many people use a wide wheel up front, so the most used tire is probably just a 275, but if i were you i'd do a 295, you'll have to make sure you get the offset to work with the front.
