![]() Use this as a guide ONLY. ***Go to the tire shop and have a test fit with the rims.*** The backspace is critical. Esp with the front.
(((((((((((((((The fronts should be ***AROUND***17X8 with 4.95 backspace. The rear 17X9 with 5.95 backspace. Also I believe they are a 4 on 4 1/4 pattern.))))))))))) Tire size will vary with different brands of tires. I have some cooper tires that I could have went a size bigger because the lack of sidewall buldge. But in general the tire size you mention is the right aspect from front to rear.
