  • rims and tire question need some help

    my bro bought tt2's 17x9.5 and 17x11 rims and he haves 275 40 r17 in the back and places r having trouble getting them on. the 275 40 r17 is wut is recommended and i wonder wut we should do becuz they r not fitting on right.

    275s are too narrow for 11s... you should be using 315s for that.

                  yea tire rack is pretty cheap...those tires in general are inexpensive...and you still have to ship and get them mounted though
