275/40/17??????
Murdered a tire last night because racecar which means i couldnt go to school today >_<. I desperately need to get tires today so my car isnt stuck in a random persons driveway for too long. Just wondering if 275/40 would be a good idea so i wont rubbing or anything. Also if anyone happens to have tires around Philly/Warminster it would be greatly appreciated if we could work something out.

What rims are on it? 275/40R17 came stock on ss's and ws6's so they will fit without rubbing on the proper wheel.

Honestly you'll just have to roll with the punches. I haven't had issues in the front while lowered, only rear.
