A wheel with 8" width on our cars.. 215/45 will be good. There will be little stretch, you can hardly notice.

With 215's.. you could probably get away with not rolling your fenders.
With 225's.. you might have to AND there will be no stretch on 8" width with 225.

It's your call.

i cant understand your run-on sentences.

youll need to roll and pull your fenders.

might be easier to read if you paused also and not continue to read because there are no periods. :rofl:

Are you saying you're lowered 2" all around? Those wheels came with 235/45's from the factory, just buy some 225's because you're not low enough to need to tuck.

yeah they came with 225 50 r17. won't 215 be to risky to getting bent ? NJ/NYC streets are crap.

nope trying to avoid all that
