I'll snag one today or tomorrow. I took one but it was too sunny at noon that day and the shadows don't show the tires very well

got those pics for ya dave, took direct pics of both wheels and tried to get a shot of the back. There was a car parked behind and its sorta not drivable right now (don't ask). It was uphill and i only had enough energy to move it about 2 feet before i got tired and gave up.

front (17x8- 235 45 17)



rear (17x9- 255 45 17)





rearshots to show width







yeah i know its filthy, hasn't been driven in a week, but hopefully i get that pesky water pump belt changed tomorrow.

Thanks man. You listed the 9's as 255/40/17 the first time.

Now you list them as 255/45/17 which is it?

You didn't show the rear offset, assuming F/R are the same it should be fine. Mine are +35 F/R, so your +38 would tuck in better. I'm running 225/45-17 & 255/40-17 which are the same diameter/hight as stock but i'm lowered with coilovers.
