well the red dvl (99 cobra) needs new tires. they are 275 bfgs now but they kinda looked stretched out because its a 17x10.5 wheel. i really want 315s but the price is crazy except for sumis which i am worried about them being worthless traction wise. if they were the same as an avg 275 i wouldnt mind but i dont wanna be getting sideways in 4th ya know. also i have seen nitto drs for a semi decent price (176 or so)but how are they in rain etc because its my dd. i havent found much for used 17" 315s. if anyone knows of some or has some site recommendations lemme know (checked ebay, discounttire, tirerack).

or should i say screw it and get some decent 275s :dontknow:

edit: just found some used 285/40 goodyear eagle gsc's (50% tread left) for 116 shipped thinking of getting them for now they should last a year atleast then ill get 315s. there a lil wider than 275s
