    Impala 17 inch SS wheels on a '95 RMW. What size tires on front to avoid rubbing...and I don't want a super low profile tire? Then on the rear?

    Looking for suggestions. Thanks.

    The original Impala SS tie size is 255/50/17, and work fine, but they look a bit small when put on a wagon or sedan that isn't lowered. A few RMW/Caprice wagon guys run 235/60/17s, and some go with 255/55/17s on all 4 corners on there cars with the Imp wheels. 275s are about as wide as you can go on either front or rear.
