Default Last minute advice on tires Im ording in a couple hours..

Need to pull the trigger today on tires since we have a shoot on Friday.

Thoughts on these

Front:

235/40/17 Has a tire heigth of 24.4 inches and a width of 9.76

Rear:

275/50/17 Has a tire height of 27.88 and a width of 11.1

I wish the front was a 245 but even a 255 is only 10.16 inches wide, so I don't know how big a deal it really is. I really think the taller side wall, on a big car like my Fairlane, will give a more "musclecar look"

It's very hard to picture the final look, so advice would appreciated. Oh, plan B is Nitto 555s in 245/40/17 and 275/40/17. The rear tire only has a heigth of 25.59 inches.

Opinions.. thoughts... I'm ordering in a couple hours.. This tread will be deleted this afternoon..
