I know some of the T-Series boys are using a similar width tyre without any problems. I think they are on 18" or 19" rims tho. Don't see why they would cause any problems but I'm not 100% sure on that.

I've already got 235/45/17 for the front and my choice for the back is limited to 255/40/17 or 275/40/17 (or 235/45/17). I guess I want as much tyre as will fit out of the choice available to me. It won't break my heart if the 275's won't fit under the guards or are a bad choice generally but if all is go, I'd prefer them. |
