New Wheels question.
 
I wanted to replace the stock wheels. It's a Lazer Red V6. Wanted to know what tires u recommend. Looking for good tread and good looks too. Good combo. Don't need F1's.

I was thinking Anthracite 17x10.5 Deep Dish FR500 for read and 17x9 upfront. What do you guys think? would those be 285's on the tire size??

Suggestions welcome... althought I am partial to the FR500's.

Thanks.

315/35/17 for the rear
275/40/17 for the front

as for tire brand, summitomo is cheap and will have better~ tread life then something such as Nitto's. I have them on my stang, and they aren't too bad. They suck big time when it is cold outside, but when warm they are more then enough to handle the little power the V6 puts out.

just like he said...tire sizes for the front: 265-275/40/17, and back 285-315/40/17

i've got kumho ecsta supra - 712 on my car, tread life has been good so far, about time for a new set, i think i got either 28k or 38k on them now, and they're relatively cheap, i think right around 100 a tire.
