Ulrik Posted August 12, 2006 Share Posted August 12, 2006 Since my wheels that is on my car now "sticks out" from the fender. So i cant lower the car with coilovers/springs, then they would just hit the fender when i turn hard, im gonna change to my original 17" wheels. But they have worn out tires on them and are ugly silver wheels. I thought i could paint them gloss black to match the car. But i need some new tires on them. Whats best fitment ? Size is: 17x8 JJ ET 50 Tires that is on them now Front 235/45/17 Back 235/45/17 What tires are the best to put on them in the front/back ? I want as wide as i can put on them, without causeing any problems. Im gonna use these till i can afford real nice Volk wheels.

jamesmark Posted August 12, 2006 Share Posted August 12, 2006 if the are original 17's they should be 9.5 rears, why are they 8" all round? are you driving four front wheels? If they are 9.5 on the rear it should be 255 40 and front 235 45 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
