I was thinking about getting some new rubber and a really good price came up on 205/40R17s. The only problem is they are dinky ass tires (almost an inch and a half smaller then the tires I've got). Does anyone have any pics of them on their ride?

This is my 97 Talon with 225/45-17 Dunlop FM901's. A little larger than the ones you mentioned. I post them because they are only 0.2" difference in dia. from stock which was 195/70-14.

sorry the pic is so large...


So now at 44 what the hell do I do?

They're not tall, they're too short. They threw my speedo off by 5-7mph. I have 225/45/17's now. 215/45/17s will also work and keep your speedo in check. My sig pic is with the 205/40/17s if you can see them. I had a 1.5" drop and it looked like stock ride height with them.



Lets just say this... I'm over 100whp and soon to cross 200whp. Thanx 2GNT! Now if I could only learn to prove it.

Having Problems? Heres my Three step solution to anything 2gnt related.
Step 1: Put down everything in your hands.
Step 2: Grab a lucky strike, Smoke it.
Step 3: Walk to the fridge, double fist some keystone ice, sit down in the shade, drink one beer, finish cigarette, drink other beer, roll a joint, smoke it, walk back to your problem, and in about 5 minutes the solution will come to you.
If not. Go here: here

If still nothing, your trying to hard. Start over at step 1.
