Hi, I'm a new member on here but ive used this site alot for help with my mustang. I just bought new wheels, 17x8 up front, 17x9 out back (4.25 backspace). I am thinking 235/40/17 up front, and 275/40/17 for the rears..and I need to order the tires but I dont know if those sizes will fit? Will I have to remove the quad shocks? Would I want to do that?

they will be fine just turn the shock around and your set

That's the sizes to get, those 235's might still rub when the wheels are turned all the way.

Alright..so I will have to modify my quad shocks to fit the 275's? Will they still work or will I have to take them off I dont understand. And what would I have to do to make them not rub up front?

ya i have 245's all around and they rub up front 275 should be bit*hin in the back

i got the tires..245/45/17 up front, 275/40/17 in back. Neither tire rubs its awesome!! I didnt have to turn my quad shock around either there is a few inches of clearance

quads really serve no porpose flip them if want to keep them i run 275/40/17 in the read with no quads and in front 245-45-17 but on an 8" front wheel 235-40-17 is perfect
