These wheel are bitchin. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/aktion035.gif) They look 10 times better when you actually see them a touch them. Now it is time to pick a tire size. I have been eyeing up the kuhmo ASX tires for a while and i think those are the tires i want. My question to you guys is what size should i get. I want to keep the speddometer as close to stock as possible so 205/40 are out of the question. The size that i really want is a 215/45/17. So i was wondering how much wider a 205/45/17 compared to a 205/50/17 and will the 215/45 fit without rubbing??
Thanks alot, James |

QUOTE Do you know how much wider the 215 is over th 205? 10mm or .394" (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) seriously, use the power of the Web !!!!!! go to tire rack dot com, pick the brand you want, go the "specs" and you'll get your answer, or at least close to it........ how stock are your rear fenders? (rear fenders are problem, you can put wider rims/tires up front) the 205 tire is a perfect match for a 7" wide rim i have 205/45/17's on my revolutions |
