What year is your LS? Mine has the sport package and my door reads 235/50/17. I just recently put on some 245/45/17 and they work great. Why do you want to go wider on your tires?

Looks mainly, I need new tires anyways. I'm thinking 255/45/17 rear, and 245/45/17 fronts, mine is a 2000.

I had 255/24's on the stock 17" wheelsfor a while. That is about as wide as you can go without rubbing anything.

im running 235's... they look great..

OK?? so 255 is the widest, so then the next question is, do i want 45 or 50 series?? probably the cheapest huh.

50's will give a softer ride, and a slightly taller and muscular look. They look pretty good on my car.

But 45's will be better for hard cornering if you're into that sort of thing.

I have 255/50's on my stock wheels, and the fronts rub on full steering wheel turns. And I think the OEM tires that were on the car when I bought it handled better. Those Firehawks were nice tires.
