> I was running 17x9 +10 in the front and +5 in the rear with 215/45/R17 at the beginning of the summer and 225/45/R17 at the end. The tires tracked hard and the car was annoying to drive. I put the stock 15s back on and I enjoy driving the car much more. Next season I’m gonna try pulling the fenders and fitting some phatty tires on my shit.

i dont mind bulky tires but it depends what im going to use them for … if its for the track or strip or whatever, than ya ill slap on some 255’s no problemo … but for every day driving and the simple stuff, im good with 225’s in the rear plus i like there definition, they look snug around the fender …

here are a few pics that i found of 5zigen FN01R-C 17x8 +35 with 205/40/17 for the front and 17x9 +20 with 235/40/17 for the rear (i personally think the front tires should be 215’s or 225’s):
