215/45 would be fine. Depends on the fitment you're going for. If you want more stretch go with a 205/45

What brand of tires are you looking at..each kind of tire stretches different

QFT. I just got a pair of 215/40 Federal SS595 and they run a bit wide compared to my Hankook v12. They'rw actually about 220mm wide whereas the v12 are about 217mm. Sometimes a few mm can mean the difference between rubbing or not rubbing depending on your setup.

Word of advice, and I just found out about it, is to google the name and the size of the tire followed by the words section width (i.e Federal SS595 215/40 section width). Open up a link and it should show you the actual section width in inches like 8.7".

Very useful.

Fasho man thanks, ima go look it up right now. They're mounted on 215/45 and it looks way to big so I didn't bother putting them on my car yet

EscoStylez is running a 215/40 on 9.5. Check his ride thread to see what his looks like. Or pm him. I know he's running Nankang NS-20
