I am looking at a meatier tire. I currently got 245/35/20 and was thinking a 245/40/20 will they fit on my car. I have a Sedan awd. Its lowered on 350z s-tech, but hopefully soon some coilovers. What do you guys think.

 

That is quite a tall tire and almost 1.5" taller than stock, bad idea IMO. Whats wrong with the 245/35/20 size?

 

If I remember right, he wanted a better ride from the 20s. Thus the taller tire. That's going to hurt performance lumpia. What is your first name anyway? Calling you food is so odd.

 

Ernie' what if you went wider? like 255/35/20? I noticed when i went from 245 to 255 the tire seemed taller and bouncy'

 

Why is it all PNW guys in here? Do we stalk each other?

 

Oh, i didnt get the memo about the PNW quota. my bad Hall Monitor PNWHai

 

Man I went and took a poop and 5 replies. Never thought about the 255 will it fit? Jeff the name is Ernie.

 

255 its onto widths as narrow as 8.5

 

I have 20x8.5, will I have to worry about rubbing. I also have a 5mm spacer up front so I am basically running a 35 offset up front.

 

that one I can't answer for you. Measure out an extra 6mm from your current tire position and see if it hits the fender

 

But your comment above mine is saying it can fit on a 8.5 rim right.

 

10mm total tire width increase. Since it across the whole tire, each side is going to stick out 5mm more. Do you have an additional 5mm clearance on both sides?

 

I actually think I do, I will check it tonight. I might have to roll the rears. But will this give me some extra cushion for the pushin. LOL

 

Yes, the tire will physically fit on an 8.5" wheel with no stretch. It is within the tire specs for a 255 width

 

Sweet, I might have to look into it. Thanks
