new rims
what ya think?
fronts are 17x9.5 , rears are 17x11 with 275/50ZR/17 tires, but they're wayy too small for those rims, so i'm thinkin of going with 295s, but not sure what brand yet.

Sweet lift kit! Where did you get it!?
Drop that sum-bitch and ditch the 275's thats wicked gay. Putting 275's on a 11" wide wheel looks like an over-stretched rubber-band.

BFG KDW's are one of the better tires out there. They are a 3 season tire, but do the job well. Depends on what you are looking to spend.
I also suggest to buy 315's for the rear.

i had trouble fitting my 315's in the back, even with the APHR. you really might be better off trading the rears for another set of 9.5's and just run those all the way around, especially if you actually plan on lowering. unless for some reason it actually fits with more than .5" of clearance like mine had...

true, but I don't think he had any issues with the 315's on the car, just the stockers

Umm, did they give you a reason that the 315's are illegal? Never heard of that one before.
Although I could see them impounding your car for doing donuts....
