Quick 17" tire Q?
Monday, February 15, 2010 9:25 AM
I currently have the Motegi DP6's for my car, but the current tire is a 215 width. I was wondering if the 225 series would fit the rim. The car is lowered on sportlines as of now, would that affect the turning radius? The rim itself is 7 inches wide. I plan to run a 225/45/17, does that sound right?

anyone else to support that?
Just want to be sure about it. Especially with being on sportlines.

225/45/17 is the correct size tire for our cars. your other option is a 235/45/17. those 2 will keep your speedo the same. but yes a 225/45/17 is the actual correct tire for a 17" rim. i run them right now.

X2. I've run this size on 6.5" and 7" wide rims, lowered 2" on Sprints.

What do you guys think about the Nitto Nex gens? It's either those or General UHP's again.
