Default Tire size for 17s on 3/4 drop?

Iv got some 17s on my 03 RCSB with a 3/4 drop and just cant seem to get the profile size right, which is the main issue. I prefer street tires since I dont need drag radials but would like something bigger than 275 in the rear, if you guys know of any tires would be good or have any pictures it would be appriciated! Thanks

Damn lol okay I dont exactly need THAT wide. I just like the looks, so for now 305-315 would work. But do you have any pictures of yours? It sounds awesome. Also my rim is 17x9

Badass looking! Looks exactly like mine, RCSB arrival blue metalic 3/4 drop and everything. I think I have 65 profile on mine right now and I dont like it. I think I will go with 55s. Yours looks good though its extra clean and looks good with that profile size, I dont know what it is. Good job though
