Does anyone make 305/40/17 tires?
 

I would like to stick with 27" diameter tires (approximately). I can find 275/50/17's but nothing bigger. Is that all there is?

I want to go wider not taller. I would like to stick with a 27 inch diameter to fill out the wheel well. Right now I am thinking about 275/50-17 in the back and 245/50-17 in the front. I would really like to go wider in the back but cant really find much. I will check the 335's. Do you know what brand the Mustang tires are?

I cannot find anyone making 335/40's or 335/45's x 17. I have to ask this again, does anyone make a tire wider than 275 in a 17 that is about 27 inches in diameter. If there is, please let me know the size and the manufacturer.

The tire size 315/35-17 there are some, one of the supporting venders carrys several different tires. Also if you call them they may have other options for you.

Re: Does anyone make 305/40/17 tires? (bigblockbob)
 

You can run a 10inch wide rim with 315/35/17 ....offset trailing arms would be the way to go ....and no fender flares required ....Feb 2004 had a nice 69 with offset arms running 315/35/17 rear ....If you want a picture I,ll find it and post ...

yes, will the american racing torque thrusts work still??
will the handling be the same?
what is the sacrifice with offsets??

The tallest 17's that i ever owned were 285/40/17 Good year F1 Z rated steel. I don't think that they make them anymore, but i've got a set with half the tread.
