I am getting a set of corvette zr1 rims that are 17x9.5 and I am trying to find out what wheels to put on them. For the size I am thinking of getting for the front 245/45-17 and for the rear 275/40-17. I am wanting a wheel that has good wet and dry traction but also for the tread to have an awesome and aggressive look to it. If any one has any ideas of what brand of tire to get and any pics of differnt tires would be great as well.
I am thinking something along these lines of tires.

you mean new tires right?

 

Im not the biggest fan of making my car look like K.I.T.T even tho that knight rider was an awesome show but i love how those lights have that blue glo..its goot be killer for someone to see that in their rear-view with the scaner and all...o well about the tires, i would go WIDE and low profile..lol i like the look

 

Do you have any preference on what brand of tire to get? I do like how the neons turned out in the nose. It does give it and evil look with those on and the scanner going. Thanks.

 

i heard good things on the nitto 555 extreme. Heres another choice of tires u might check out. Yokohoma avs db series. I have these tires on my ta and i just love these tires. Very good treadware and traction on wet roads. The sized i have are 255/45zr/17's in the fronts and 275/40zr/17's in the rear. I bought these tires for 161 each in the fronts and 171 each in the rears. http://www.superiortireco.com/avs_db.html.
