I just got a set of Torque thrust IIs for my '93 Z. 17x9.5's for the front and 17x11's for the rear. Anyone know what size tires will look th ebest on these wheels? I searched all the threads here and couldn't find anything. Found alot of different sizes, but not the ones I wanted.
Also I read that some mods may be required. I'm not wanting to lower the car because I drive it like I stole it and that would just be asking for trouble. Anyone think I will have a problem with these?
Thanks!

some 315's or 335's would look sweet :D

With both of those sizes you'll need to bust out the hammer and pound the fender well out and maybe roll the fender lip.

Here's a link to a walkthrough of the process

Thanks man! I think I am going to put 275-40-17's on the front and 315-35-17's on the rear. That combo looks pretty good on that SS in the link.

Your car looks good! Thats exactly the look I am going for. You ever have problems in the rain with those meats on the back? I had some 295's on a truck and it wasn't too bad.

Nope, no unexpected problems with the tires. The 315s I've had perform in the rain better than some of the cheaper 275 tires I've had (and I live in Florida where it rains a bunch!).

Sweeeet! Now all I have to do is get the interior how I want it and start on the stroker. :D
