That was my biggest concern with the 17x8.5 rims...if the 275/40's would fit. I already have a whole set of eagle f1 tires this size is why i was considering them up front. Guess Ill just have to go out and get the 245/45's. And Sarasota is exactly where the rims are coming from. Nice to here im getting a good product from a reputable company.

I'm thinking not so much. I have the same rims on my Vette and the 245/45/17's fit snug on there. I would imagine that with 275's they would look like balloons.

Not sure if I agree with that. I bought my ZR1's from him through eBay and he never left me possitive feedback. I emailed the guy 20 times and he never even emailed me once!! I won't buy from him again, all he cared about was getting his money but because of that he won't get any repeat buisness.

looking good.. i think the wheels will look good.. besides like a few other people said go with a little bit bigger tire in the back...

They had a problem with the volume of wheels they were selling. It's this little warehouse, and they have about 8 guys in the back prepping the wheels for shipment, and they have 3 guys working the desks. Since Joe never works, the guys that are there are only there from 9-5 and they do what they can. They changed their MO a while ago asking people to call if they had any questions.

I'm sure it was nothing personal, just a poor volume to manning issue.

Regardless of the fact, him not leaving you feedback does not change that you got quality rims at half the price of any competitors

on eBay I only get feedback 1/2 the time from the sellers.. I just don't care, if they can't be bothered, I'm not either.

This is from a sales rep at tirerack.com....

Brandon,

The according to industry standards the recommended rim width range for
a 275/40R17 tire is 8.5 to 11", so 8.5" would be the minimum width to
use but certainly safe.

Thank you,

Since i already have four 275/40/17's, im going to go ahead and run them in the front and see how everything looks. A one inch difference between the tire height of the fronts and rears shouldnt really even be that noticable wouldnt you think? Maybe give the a$$ end a nice little stance?

it's noticable since the tire being black looks alot bigger with the smaller aspect ratio
