well i got some new tires today (falkken azenis rt-615) but i decided to go wide. it was said that it couldnt be done before without issues from people who speculate everything and believe nothing. well i put on a good set of 245/45/R17. NO rubbing what so ever. now its CLOSE but even after doing some full left and right turns, going down high ramps (out of gas stations around here) and pretty much and other driving situation, they hold up perfectly, and look MEAN! just wanted to share. oh by the way, there on stock rims.

i just realized what i typed, it was a 235/45/17 not a 245. my bad. now i feel like a douche. and by saying "it" i was refeering to the sticker on the tire, the manufacures sticker. it reccommended to fit it to a 7" rim. acceleration is just as good, and my speedo seems to be ok "read 35 on state st right beside another car(speed limit is 35)" but yea ita a 235 NOT a 245. i mistyped the first posting.

look guys, i know that that web site doesnt have the size tires i got on there (and we were lookin on the web before i got them and they werent on there but they were in a catalog that the tire shop had) but im telling you, the STICKER on the tire said it was meant for a 7" rim. THATS why i got them. i have been a mechanic in a performance shop (imports) for 5 yrs, and went to motorcycle mechanics institute in AZ, AND i am a helicopter mechanic (67U,67T chinook,blackhawk mechanic) in the military (national guard) since 1998. so i know my way around a car. i understand what your telling me about the tire size. and actually, the tires were the same height. i dont know how, but they were. i made sure EVERYTHING was perfectly ok, before i got them mounted. even the guy at the tire store was amazed how well they fit. ill get some pics up soon, i need to buy a digital camera anyway.
