ok Im still having problems with what way to go. I origianlly planned on getting the fr500 with 17x9 "front" and 17x10.5 "rear" well i cannot find the tires I need that match..from what im seeing I will have to use 2 differant brands. Im wondering if it would be easier to go 18x9 front and 18x10 rear. and use the same size tire. I have a 1.5" drop in front and a 1" drop in the rear. I was told to use 275/40/17 for the front and 315/35/17, but cannot find the sizes in the samr brand and model tire...what would you do?

Seriously? You have quite a few choices, but Sumitomos and Nitto's would be the most popular. I have the Sumi's. Tire Rack sells them. I have 275/40/17 and 315/35/17.
I know there are other brands, but the 315's get wicked expensive if you are not careful. Also, the Kuhmo MX is available in a 315 too I believe and the MX is a great tire.

I have 265/35/18's on the front and 285/35/18's on the rear and it looks great.17's are a little bit cheaper and you should be able to find those sizes,they are the most popular meaning the 17's.

Im thinking about putting the black FR500's on my 95 LaserRed (deep dish) but would like to get a photo chop first to see what I think. Chrome is probably the way to go on LaserRed, but there's just something about black on a red car.
