Hi Tony, I agree they're great LOL,,,,No biases here LOL

I'm running 17/315/35's out back on an 11" rim with 5.75 BS and still playing with the front.....

Currently there are 17/275/40's on a 9 1/2" rim with a 5.25 BS and I'm having clearance issues with the fender lip (at the inner fenders given how low my stance is)......That said, I plan to try running an 8 1/2" rim with a 5.25BS and the 275's to see if it works out......I know that's not a great combo and may have some inherent issues so we may have to drop to a 265 or 255 tire up front.

I really like the big buns up front, but the overall stance and correct fit are important....We're playing with some 3 piece rims from CCW with some Hoosier tires to see what we can accomplish with fit/clearance.....After sorting out the front fitment and I'll then order the corrected TT2's and order a second set of rims (HRE's or Budnik's) and rubber in the end as wheel and tire sets go.
