I think he's wanting more of a 225/35/R17 type #. I'd say probably...255/50s or so up front and depending upon how wide you want to go out back, maybe a 295/50 or 305/45 will work. I *think* that'll work, let someone more in tune w/ tire sizings give you their advice

Sounds like you're wanting more tire under there...

That may work, i dunno about the 285s out back tho, that to me just sounds kinda small. (or the 275 up front sounds kinda big) .
