275s work good. you can go a little bit wider if you want to, but i wouldn't. it doesn't look right.

Go with 285/35-R17, I have that size tire on my car and it looks the best in my opinion. I've put a set of 275s on before and the rim kinda stuck out further than the tire and that just looks stupid. Wider tire = more contact = better traction, plain and simple. [patriot]
