I think there are members here running 295/35/17 on theirs. I could be wrong. Someone will post in here soon.
lowered?Quote:

285/40/17 in the front

yes im lowered. right now ive got 275/40/18s in the back and i might just slap those on the front to see if they rub before i buy anything
With the right offset you can run 315s up front without issues
the 275s will without doubt fit.Quote:

Just don't go much over 26" tall and it will be fine.
how much more stress will a tire larger than 275 put on the power steering?Quote:

I seen a guy here that was running a 19x9.5 HP Racing EVO 2 wheel and really want a set for my ride. My question is what tire size and back spacing would be needed with out the front rubbing? If that is possible. I do not plan on lowereing the car. Thanks for any help!
You could use ebay as a reference. Type in HPRacing Trans Am and see what comes up as far as size and offset.
there's a few members here running 17x11 on the front...
What about 18's or 19's?
As long as your overall tire height stays close to stock and the offset matches the car it should be fineQuote:
