Looking at running the GTA style wheels. Considering the 17x9 for the rear and 16x8 for the front. Would run stock 245/50 on the front and 275/40 on the rear for that wider look. Anyone ever do this, pictures?, will it work??
You can only buy the 17x9's in groups of 4 so you might as well run it on all four corners.
Picture in my sig is with the 17x9s runnign 255 40 17's but you can do 275's but I was afraid it would scrub in the front.
Personally these cars under-steer when pushed beyond the limit, and will over steer under accelerated turns. Having different tires will make it worse so I ran the 255's all corners. but alot of people will do 275's all corner and some have 255 on the front and 275 on the rear.
Thanks for the reply - yea the wheels I'm looking at are from Classic Industries. Was hoping to keep the same essential look up front with the 16 but a slightly more aggressive stance with the 17 and 275 rear

Yeah I would do all 17 with 255 front and 275 rear if that is the stance you like. If factory front brakes it will require 1/4 inch space on front.
BTW I have 1.25 inch lowering springs on the car.
Looks like classic has 30% off right now... That's a hard to beat price.
