tire size

krylonking104 · Nov 17, 2010

recommendations for tire size on 17x7 ADR M-Sports, Tein S-Tech (2") drop, fenders have already been rolled...

215/45 R17...Perfect fit
225/45 R17...A bit wider
225/50 R17... wider + larger sidewall

Anyone running something close and can give me a good Rx??

215/45 is fine. No need for wider tires.

Btw, you didn't even have to roll your fenders for this setup.

I've had numerous 215s and 225s. My 225s have looked a lot better. I think the wider tire gives our cars a better stance

on 7" rims?

.... 225's looked normal on 8" rims.

Word, I have 225's on my 8" wheels and there is no stretch.

For a 17x7 rim, the correct tire size to maintain factory diameter is 215/50/17.

why did u roll your fenders for 7" wide rims? :thinking:

would 205/40/17 be a bad idea for a 17x7 rim?
im getting a great deal on some enkei rims with these size tires for only $160. im dropped 2.5 front/back by the way.

If you're getting a great deal on the rims, you can afford some new tires. lol

The 205 section width is fine - may be some mild stretch on a 7" width, but a 40 profile is going to be too small for a 17" rim. By the way, $160 is really cheap, I hope you've seen these in person...

Update: Just got my 225/45 R17 tires on those 17x7's... they perfect
