I need more traction for my 17x8s
Right now I have 17x8 ROH Snypers all the way around. I'm currently running Pirelli PZero Nero 245/45/17s on all the corners. Now they're great for handling, but 1.) my 365 RWTQ kills them (the tire or the width is the culprit?) and 2.) they're hard as a rock making the ride jarring.
Now I know it's been of some debate whether or not we can run 275/40/17s on these wheels or not . . . I think I really need that width on the rear. So??? . . . .
Also, for a slight upgrade in comfort I've been thinking about switching to either Nitto 555s or Nitto Invos, since they're known to have softer sidewalls. Or maybe I should should just get some drag radials????
Advice? Suggestions?
