I saw last month that Nitto has added a size to their NT450 line ('entry level high performance') which would fit some cars here...

275/50R17 27.8" diameter, 11.0 wide
255/50R17 27.1" diameter, 10.1 wide
225/50R17 25.9" diameter, 9.0 wide

It may not be the best of the best tires out there, but the 275/9" rear and 225/8" front would scratch my itch pretty well..... I'm not sure that I would want to run a 255/50 in front.

The 1le brake swap is very nice, cheap, and pretty easy to do. I did it about 6 years ago. Big car spindles from Scarebird as he puts a taper in the ball joint holes so you can run stock joints.

Do you have any links on the swap? Been searching around and have not found much yet. Thanks

275/50R17 has been available from Nitto for many years. I have run them on the rear of my truck for at least 11 years. I run 255/50-17 on the front.
