17x9 tire sizes

[rancid240]

I am currently running 205/55 on my 16s, and want to go with a similar overall tire height when I go up to 17x9s. So I was thinking 235/45, seems to be a popular stock size so I will be able to find it used easily. Any other size suggestions? Right now the car is on sheepdog springs so isnt low enough to tuck tire, but the wheel has a 22 offset and I dont want to have to pull the fenders (I am ok with rolling the inside part)

Are you trying to run wider tires? I'm sure you can go up to 255/45 or 40 all around. I was at -3 camber up front at the time according to the alignment guy but it looks pretty much the same after he aligned it.

I run a 245/40 in the rear on mine, not bad. Gives it a little bit of a stretch look...not much though.

225/45's are real easy to find at used shops

nah... those are mustang cobra rims, I believe from a 00-03 mustang. Got them off of ebay for 150 shipped... :D

that process is being taken care of... I took this pic after i did my 5 lug conversion and installed the new rims... i'm a lil broke and trying to get a student loan to get suspensions.... would you like to save me the hassle and donate some money? :hsdance:
