i can't rotate, fronts are 17x9's, rears are 17x11's and one way treads, i'm really liking the nitto 555, i know this is a stupid question but what does 315, 305, 265 and all those sizes mean, is that the width? I have 315's but what is the smallest that can go on a 17x11 rim? thanks for all the input, i'm going to need a good set of tires to go with the new gears.
I'm going to a school called wyotech right outside of pittsburg and i think i will be taking to car to the local track alot, i need to show those ricers whose boss!
