Tire question???
I have 17X8 IROC wheels.I have 245/45/17 on it now. The car look very week form behind. They seam to stick out farther . What size tires could i run to make it have more of a aggressive look (wider). NOT HUGE..
Also how would the car ride/handle with a wider tire in the back. Please let me know Thanks in advance.

it would ride the same as long as the side wall size syated the same. you can fit up to a 295 on them, but that invloves a lot of sidwall flex so it should only be considered if straight line performance is the only goal. 275's would be pushing it because they would bulge a little to much for my liking.
