Thoughts on thisss
 
Right now I have 17x9 and 17x10.5 fr500s. When I bought tires I went with 275s on all 4 rims. Well that tire just isn't big enough on the DDs and I notice it everytime I look at the car. I know that its really not that noticeable but I'm sure you guys understand that it is to me. So I was looking into getting new tires for the back and what I'm wondering is if you guys think it will look ok with 2 different tire brands on there?

My Dad seemed to think that it was a bad idea. Right now I have Fuzion zRIs and I was looking into getting the sumis. I know those are pretty cheap tires but I think they'd be fine for how often I use the car.

It would look fine that way.I'm going to have Nitto's on the front and BFG's on the rear once I order my 315's.

Yeah, I don't think it matters much since your going to be running an offset, staggered wheel set-up.

Don't the 275's stick out pretty far on the front end? They do with my car.

I just order a set of BFG DR's 315/35/17 for the cobra. It will look fine, just get a set of 315's you'll love it. I'm running sumitomo's up front,well all the way around for now. 255/40/17's. Buy drag radials,or you'll wish you did!!!!!

Mix and match is fine. I run the 315 sumis out back on my ride.

BTW, where do you live in WI?
