I think the widest u can run on a fox witout having any rub is a 275 tire. So I'd say 275/40 or 35 in the rear and a 255/40 or 35 up front. I say the 40 because it will fill the wheel well a lil more since ur riding stock height. If u have plans to lower it tho I'd say go with the smaller tire wall and get the 35

17x8's should run 245/45R17's
255's will fit, but will bulge over the lip of the wheel.
275/40R17's fit perfectly in the back of my car, and it's lowered fwiw.

ok guys I came up on 2 near new bridgestone 245/45/17's at my work. I mounted/balanced them on put them on the front of my car.
Also I think the wheels are 17x9 because when I balance them it read 17x9...
Im thinking of going with 255/45/17 for the rear.
i should run 255/40 or 35's if i plan on lowering my car correct.

Go 275/35/17 because 255 isnt enough meat on the back, especially since u have 17-9's. 255 would be good on some 17-8's.

ok ill check them out first. If I dont like them, ill return them.
I work at a big O btw. I think itll look real sick with that look.
275/40/17 will do the trick.
