what is the widest tire i can put on a 17x7.5 wheel.................. im looking for so sumer sticky but cant make up my mind on a size........ i have a ss\lsj\tc...........

 

225/45's work well from what Ive seen.

I will most likely be running this size once my 17's arrive

 

I'm running 235/40s

 

I guess I am running the biggest, 245/45-17 but mine is on an 8" wheel. It will fit a 7.5 though. The circumference is 3 mm larger than a stock ss/sc 18.

 

where these on 17x7.5's.........................beacause i really want 2 run these http://www.edgeracing.com/tires/2354017/ .......or these http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires....peed_rating=(Y)......... but if not i will go with these in 235/45-17......http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires....e1=yes&place=1

 

The Azenis RT615's are a badass tire for the money. I personally would make the BFG KDW2 my last choice out of those tires, Id say Azenis, MX's, or BFG G-force Sports(they are also a AA/A rated tire like the KDW2 but arent Z rated, and are better on the track, the KDW's seem to get greasy easy, I think the Sports are better at the limit)

 

Sory man I had my head up my but on that one I have stock 18"

 

i have these in 225/45's............ they dont hook up at all.......... and i have had great luck with the KDW'S in the past on my 2G..........

 

Trust me, you don't want to cram a super wide tire on a wheel not designed for it. For a 7.5" wide wheel, 225 is perfect.

 

going with these.......................http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires....peed_rating=(Y)

done deal......

 

Direzzas are badass too. More money than the others, but good reputation.

The Michelin Pilot PE2 are supposed to be REALLY nice too. Higher price bracket though

 

just to clarify, 225 / 45/ 18's fit fine on the stock ss/sc rims?

 

Yes, 225's are fine on a 7" wide wheel.

 

anyone tried 17's with 235 40r18s w/ sportlines
