255 on 10 inch rim
OK here's the question:
Can I run a 255/40 on a 17x10 rim? Please stick on the topic... I know that 275/40 is another common size that will work, but my question is can the 255/40 work well on the 10 incher?
Thanks,
Brian

Don't tease us NobleForums! We need some whole car pics to, um, see what the tires look like with the whole car in view. Yeah, that's it.

already starting to drool from what I think is a picture of a Noble wheel

255 will sit on just fine with 10" wheel. I have a friend running 245/35R18 tire with 10" wheel and it looks just great. From drifting scene there is lot of drivers having a LOT wider wheel than the tire is. One of sickest I have seen is something like 185 tire with 9 or 9,5" wheel (on hatchiroku).

Sorry I steered the thread off course, Wargasm. But at least it wasn't about using a different tire size. Thanks for posting pics NobleForums, your car looks great even if its a little dirty (I like dirty cars that get driven better than garage queens anyway).

hahhaa, I wondered how Noble's posted such incredible acceleration numbers on "tiny" 255 wide tires... but now I see that with a 255 set on a 10" wide wheel that its a meaty mix good enough for some serious traction.

The Pirelli Corsa's are a much better choice than the Bridgestone S03's for this car. The treadwear does suck, but they're super grippy.
The noble is a fun car, but aftermarket parts are really a pain in the butt to find.
