    "Additionally, the Neo Gen's inner shoulder tread blocks are designed to reduce the amount of irregular wear commonly associated with lowered vehicles."

    If your cars not lowered, I wouldnt get this tire. It's to offset the irregularities associated with lowering your car, I.E. Wheel Camber.
    If your car isnt lowered and has the proper settings, it will wear funny.

    Also, if you're talking about the Bullitt wheels, many, many people have them on here.
    Heres one from Mean Maverick his are 17x9 with a spacer.

    You will also need spacers if you don't have the one's with 4 1/2 inches a backspacing.

    with a spacer... the backspacing is what you need to worry about, you dont want it hitting the leaf springs. otherwise stick with a 4 1/2"
