Tires for 17x7 rims
 

<FONT face="Times New Roman, Times, serif" size=2>Hey... im lookin for some help as to what size tires i need for 17x7 rims. Ive heard everything from 205/40/r17 (which seem too thin) to 235/50 and 225/50 (whichsound more reasonable but hard to find and thus really expensive) to 245/45/r17 which seem too big. If u could give some advice it would be really appreciated. Thanks</FONT>

i have 17x8's all around with 245/45/17's in the front they a 8" wide tire which are perfect and in the rear i have 275/40/17's which are a 10" wide tire which i love the wide look, the difference in look is in the front the sidewall is rounded while the rear is slanted but lookin from behind the 275's look awesome</P>


you should have no problem puttin a 245/45/17 on your rims, but im almost positive the rims you have are 17x8 and not 17x7 unless there not a ford, cobra, steeda, or saleen rim because all 17's made specifically for the stang are 17x8 and some are 17x9 i havent seen any 17x7's.</P>


i worked for town fair tire and have seen and worked on many stangs and have a indepth knowledge of stangs</P>


please get back to me and let me know what kind of rims they are because if they really are 17x7's ill get you the proper size for you</P>

Using a skinnier tire to give yourself the smaller sidewal looks horrid. Reminds me of a bicycle tire. <IMG src=smileys/smiley11.gif border="0">
