I'm not sure what width my chrome rims are but they currently have 245/45/17 goodyears on it. I want to go with a wider and lower profile tire if I can. Any idea's?
Thanks

Dave

 

well i had to get a 9 inch wheel to fit a 275 if that helps at all. the stockwheels are 8 inch. I dont know about anything smaller

 

I would only go 265/40/17 all the way around. Some say 275 will fit, but I think it's pushing it.

 

I had 275's on my ugly stock rims and they fit fine. I just wouldnt go any bigger.

 

who makes a 265/40/17? i have never seen one.

I would do 275/40/17 i have that out back with 245's up front.

 

Michelin, Goodyear F1 GS D3, Dunlop, Bridgestone, Firhawk Wide Oval.

There out there.

 

wow i had never seen one or heard of that size ever.

 

not to hijack the thread but how wide could you go on a 18x10? I got 275's right not but one had a nail in it and I might wana upgrade sometime soon....

 

315's Grimmz...the widest u can take it without spacers on our stangs

but thats kinda worthless...not bashin on sixers, since i own one...but we dont make enough power to use 315's...i would just keep it at 275 unless ur plannin on blowin it or something

 

Theres only about 2 tires in a 315/30/18. One is he BFG DR and the other is Michlenin Pilot Sports series. Wellllllll there 400 bux per tire in that size. lol

 

i'm runnnig 295-35-18 on a 9 inch rim on back and 275-35-18 up front...

 

You should check out Tirerack.com they have all the necessary rim wids for tire sizes listed in the "spec" portion of each tire overview. 275 usually nees at last 9" rims for proper tire bead seal and wear.

 

Yea, we all know about that stuff. But we like to live on the edge, lmao.

 

I guess I didn't read the ORIGINAL post right?? SORRY:stupid:
