Buy another pair of M/T drag radials and be happy.

BFG tires were the sh!t back in the day, but now they’re just a sh!tty tire that looks good.

If you’ve decided you want your T/A to handle well then I’d suggest skipping the 17s and step up to 18” tires and 9” wide wheels. So much better variety of 18” tires available.

245/45s and 275/40s are both 26.7” tall, maybe some 18” Firestone Firehawk Indy 500 tires in those sizes would be satisfactory.

It’s either be a drag racer or a canyon carver, pick one and go for it. 18” wheels in black visually don’t look all that huge and out of place like a wheel that’s silver painted or chrome/polished finish.

A lot of people here are hesitant about going to the larger diameter rims, nowadays 19” and up are pretty common on modern performance cars but start to look out of proportion unless the body has wheel openings the right size to accommodate them. My wife’s 2023 Civic Sport has black 18x8s and 235/40 Goodyears standard and it’s actually the lowest priced Civic.
