tough decision 295/45s or 315/35s

[mrxr250rider]

help me out guys! looking at mickey thomson drag radials. interested in size 295/45 or 315/35. i have a 17x10.5 wheel.

currently i have 275/40s which are too small for the rims but like the look of the bigger sidewall. my cars pretty low but i think i can fit a 295/45. not sure whats the best/grippiest option.

i have 315's on mine. i think 295 would look too small, i could have gotten 235's but it would have rubbed on stuff. i had to bend my parking brake brackets out of the way as it is.

I have 315/35's on a 10.5 wide rim on my 97. I've gotten plenty of compliments about how they look. Picture is in my sig.

I have 315/35's, but they rub a little. I have to get my fenders rolled.

Bigger is better

315 will look awesome. However, if you have concern about possible rubbing, then try 305 and you are good to go.

18x10 with the 295's and 17x10.5 with the 315's

Looks really good. My buddy is selling some 17x10.5 rears this may have just sold me lol

Ill prob go 315s. Fenders are rolled so shouldn't rub. I was just curious if the 295/45s would possibly grippier due to the bigger sidewall. If not then 315s all the way

295/45 would be extremely tall tire.

Any 45 series tire may not fit if your car is lowered. Could be wrong tho
