Status: offline I need to get new tires, I have the stock bullit 17" rims. Which tire size should I go for the fronts and rears. The rears I was thinking about 255's but undecided on the front. I haven't really made a decision so I'm open to suggestions. And can you guys also state if I need to recalibrate my speedo if you guys recommend a certain tire. And also can someone give me some tips on how to prevent rim oxidation. Thanks

Status: offline 245/45/17's on the front and 275/40/17 on the back. Won't have to adjust the speedo. Those will look the best on a stock rim. They are wide but not to wide for a stock rim. Good luck in your decision
