well first of all im not sure if ur fox has clearance, for the back rims, unless u had the fenders rolled?
anyway on the rims in front 275/40/17 and u can do the same in back but i would recommed the mt street radials for the back and thats the only size they come in that is not hella big. that way u have a better chance of fitting them on
the front will fit with the 17x9 rim and whatever kinda 275/40/17 tire that u want in front.
the only problem is....if u turn all the way when makin a u turn, it'll rub, but ya they'll fit in front.

On a fox I wouldnt go with anything bigger than a 245-45. I swapped rims off my 96 on to my 90 and it had 275's all the way around. they hit the outter lip and inside when I turned, it sucked bad. I would go with 245's up front and 275-40"s on the rear.

The 275's will rub bad up in front. Go with 245's in the front and 275's in the rear.

I would do a 265-35-18 and a 285-35-18
Here is how the 285's looked on my 18x10's
Also, Be careful about the Nitto DR's. Those run VERY narrow
I compared my 275/40/17 Goodyear F1's to a friends 315/35/17 nitto DR and they were almost the same width... The nittos were wider by less than 0.1"
