hey guys...

looking for a tire suggestion on size for my front wheels. I am running 17x8.5 with a +35 offset. I'm looking for slight tire stretch look. I've been recomended to put on 225/45 or 225/40. If you guys have pics, that would be great. I want to still be able to fit them under the stock fenders too.

thanks in advance

 

225/40/17 doesnt exist, so sounds like thats an easy choice.
i dont have pics tho.

 

It all depends on the section width, I have a 235(9.6" sec) on a 8.5 rim and it fits nice and square. So if the 225 tire you want to run is large for its size, it might not have the amount of stretch that you want.

I would go with a 215/45 if you want a "slight" stretch.

 

hmmm... thanks a lot guys , i wish i had a view on how it would look somebody out there has to have a pic with a 225/45 set up on a 8.5 width wheel???

 

nice car

 

you cant really get much of a stretch on an 8.5

 

thanks man^ i got my tires already way back...

hows your FD man? you still have it right!?!?!
