Tires

I have a 2002 Roush 360R... I just bought some 17*9 FR500's for my front and 17*10.5 FR500's for my rear... I was thinking about Nitto 555 275*40*17's for the front and Nitto 555R 315*35*17's for the rear... WOULD THIS FIT?!? After mounting and balancing the tires will it mount right on or do i have to modify anything?!? Please get back to me ASAP... Thanks...Rob

I posted on the other page.
275s fit fine up front also Cobras come with 275s up front. At one time I had 285s on the font of the Bullitt.

other post

They will fit just know that Nitto DR will not last long & will beat your paint up.
The only way I would run those is if I had a car that stayed on the track.
I have the 315 Goodyears on our Mach 1 but we dont race it.

well..idk for sure..but i think a 315 will look alittle to big on a 17 inch rim. That's just my opinion. If it was my car..I would go with 305

I have the same size wheels as you but they are Bullit wheels. I have the 275/40/17 up front and 315/35/17 BFG KD's. They fit fine with no spacers and that size tire on the back looks great.

I would go for 315's, matter of fact, I'm hella wishing I went to 315's on my 10.5 rims instead of 295's... the 295's are just a little too narrow.
