275/40/17's I belive is what comes on new conbras in the front. I have them on my car up front and they fit fine. Suspension is stock.

If you have UDP's and these tires, it is a bit togher to turn when parking.

OK'Tires mounted and on GT, fit perfect, But wow, what an episode!
I pick up my wheels with tires mounted on my way home from work.Go into my garage and find out that there was a locking lug nut on each wheel.Ilooked all thru the car and can't find the key to unlock them , so I called Sears , thats where the last owner got the wheels from, asked them about a key , tried to explain to them what i needed they said bring car over, I go over to sears they say not sears lock but aftermarkethave to break stud off, So I bring the car back home and get more p@#&! and got a socket a beat it on the nut, hey it comes off, now socket stuck on nut, after about 5 hours later I finally have new wheels,Pics soon to follow on another thread, Thanks for all the help.
