Tire size suggestions...

I might be purchasing some 17x7.5" rims soon & was wondering what tires I can run in the back? I want xxx/40/17, pretty much as wide as I can get looking good. Also if I got 17x8" what size tires? Thanks.

I've got 17 x 7.5's on my '88 GXL and am running 215/40's BFG Scorcher T/A's (bit ricey tire but I decided to go with it). You can also go 225/40, 215/45, or 225/45. With an 8" wide rim you could prolly go 235 or 245.
