I just remember back in the day when I slapped some 17x9's on my Thunderbird, I was broke as hell and told the tire place to give me the most affordable 3-season tires that were a +2 fitment on a '95 Tbird. I think I ended up with some 255/35/17 Dayton's (which I believe used to be Bridgestone's cheap brand). But it didn't work out that well, as the tires were pretty undersized. I hit the indicated 105 mph rev-limiter at like an actual 93 mph.
