Guy's 17's are old news,you almost can't find a decent 17 tire.

According to the Jeg's catalog M&H makes a 390/40R17 drag radial I'd really like to try.

[mone]

No hes not joking..17s are like 15s now..

[rocketman]

Your joking right?

17 inch tire size's suck,either 285/40 or 315/35,no in between.

There old school now.18's and 20's are the hottest set-up right with the 22's coming on strong.

Look at the main tiremakers,hardly no 17's

it's a decent tire if you're looking for something tall, but the M&H 390 isn't as wide as you would expect. Not sure how they measured it but my 345/30/18's have a wider contact patch.

Seems like the pirelli tire was a 405 not a 415...but its a 24

405/25R24

Uh........last I cked 275/40/17's are still plentiful and made by a wide range of manufacturers. 18's and 20's may be the hottest thing right now but who cares......17's are still a better fit for form and function and I doubt the tire market for 17's is going anywhere soon.

WTF are you talking about? It may be the hot setup for the bling crowd, but if you want lateral performance 17 & 18 are still on top. But I guess your opinion on 22s go with your opinion on front subs. BTW looks like not much choice here.

17 and 18's are the best for performance,18's and 20's will corner just as well.yeah the 18' and 20's maybe "bling" but that still the more common set-up now a days.How many of you guys got out road course on 17's.

Front subs well thats another post,but I will just say this DSE is not the only company that can build a front sub.

I was thinking for lateral performance 17's are best will think about this,new zo6 18's and 19's will pull a 1g,Bob Johnsons Cuda 19's and 20's.KennyD was tearing up the autox track at Kansas with 18's and 20's I believe on a 57 chevy.
