Wheel/tire size question
Guys-I'm buying the Hyper-black wheels from SLP, 17x8's, and
I'd like to run 255-45r17's BFG KDWS on them, but I'm worried
about rubbing. Anybody run this combo yet?

im running 17x8 snypers all the way around, with 245/45/17. iirc they were very close to rubbing, but since i havent had any wheels since october, i cant run out to the garage and check them

I am running American Racing Torque-Thrust II's 17x8 with 245-45-17's front and 255-45-17's rear. Had kumho Ecsta Supra 712's now Sumitomo HTR+. I think they rub a little on the inside front at full lock. hasn't worn through the primer in 2 years. Depending on your offset, 255's might just clear.
