Does anybody else think that a 275/40R17 looks weird on our cars? I ran the Mickey's 2 years ago and thought they looked funny because of how short they are. I couldn't imagine running them now that I have 4.10's.

As for the Hoosiers, a friend ran them on his Camaro and really liked them.

I think the 275/50R17 M&H's are a little taller than stock and is what I'm probably going to run again this year. If Mickey would release the 295/45r17, it would be the perfect size.

275/40/17 ET streets on stock wheels is what I use. Yeah they look dumb, but it's strictly for the track. With the 4.10s the overall ratio is 4.30 I think.

The 275/40/17 does fit on the stock rims. But yes they are short. I have the BMR rear springs which help the look but leveling the car out some. And they hook great. I will most likely try a M&H 275/50/17 when these are done.
