Message	unfortunately im at work and my tire info is at home, but i would say a you could fit a 275/35(40?) on there. as for brands i can tell you im considering so3's(even though i hear theyre bad in the rain, but i dont drive mr.z in the rain) dunlop sp8000, and i was just suggested to look into toyo ra1's(i think thats the name) heard they kick ass. hope this helps a little, im not much of the tire expert laterz chris "If I would have known addiction was this expensive I would have seen a shrink a long time ago."(BadZCar(FL)) aim=ylwttz 1990 custom yellow stage X TT 1990 2+2 stage 4+ (sold)
