F: 215/40/17 or 215/45/17
R: 245/40/17

thanks

The best sizes would be the 215/45R17 frotn and the 245/40R17 rear. You are still going to need to roll the fender lips and run the negative camber.
If I can help with the tires let me know.

fenders are already rolled an I am running Neg camber as posted above

Kitt, I would definitely go with the 215-45 and 245-40 setup. That's what I used to have.

thanks pete just wasn't sure cuz I heard they run a lil beefy

Jim@tirerack Aug 3, 2009 01:04 PM

The tire sizes I mention will keep you in the same diameter front and rear. The anti lock brakes and speedometer and odometer will stay correct.

S2Kitt Aug 3, 2009 06:08 PM

not to worried about the speed correction I got a yellow box so I can adjust as needed mainly want clearance so I don't have to run too much camber. on your site yall have 205/50/17 recomended for 17x8 and 225/45/17 for 17x9 how does that work?

I'd go 215/45-17 fronts, 255/40-17 rears.

Tire Rack site will ONLY recommend 205 fronts and 225 rears for the AP1.

Jim@tirerack Aug 4, 2009 10:46 AM

The site is very conservative and it goes off the OE tires. Stay with the 215/45R17 and 2145/40R17 and you will be good.
If I can help with the tires let me know.

Thanks Jim I really appreciate you taking the time to answer my questions. I'll let you know if I'm ready to order.
