225/45R17

i actually ordered them through discount tire, it took a couple of weeks but well worth it though. I paid 189 (tax included) for each tire mounted and balanced, you can find them a lot cheaper elsewhere but most likely you'll end up paying for shipping.

some pics of when i got them home

nah i dont but they are 100% street legal. the tire compound is pretty soft and im sure they wouldnt last very long. they are just too expensive to be dding them, thats why i got a spare pair of rims to mount em on.

That, and once they get gooey....they pick up every pebble on the road and fling it upside the body of the car....(had to drive a few miles with them still on one time after coming back from the track).
