Re: NEED THIS ANSWERED ASAP

On the front you can go as high as 275 I think, but unless someone else can confirm that, stick to 245s up front which I know will fit fine. On the rear, I honestly don't know, you might try finding a tire site that can show tires based on rim size, or find a car with factory 10s in the rear and look up its stock tire size, there might be a vette that runs 10s, but idk offhand.
