is there a rule of thumb to go by when ordering tire width? For instance, since i have 8.5" how would you figure 265 fitting? hope that makes sense.

its just from experience kyle...
8 1/2= 225-265
9=245-275
10=255-285/295
10 1/2 265-315
all depends on stretch and bulge what I listed though is like normal ranges without getting extreme

Wheel Width Max Tire Width

8.5 265

10 295

Just my .02. If they are track tires you can generally +10mm over that. The stiffer sidewalls make them a bit harder to mount, but keep the sidewall structure integrity better than street tires. Drag oriented tires have soft sidewalls and you can oversize them as well, but be cautious around any corner because the sidewall will.......well.........collapse. Generally you will run a taller sidewall with slicks/drag radials which helps in mounting on smaller width wheels. For instance.........I ran a 275/50 on an 8" wide wheel.

call them and tel them you're on over a dozen nissan infiniti message boards and you are going to write a review of your business dealings, and so far YOUR PRELIMINARY REVIEW IS THAT THEY SUCK!

Talking all big just makes you sound like a ******** that's a bunch of talk, just call and say, please cancel my order. Thank you.
They know the internet is out there and they know that people run their moufs all the time. No reason to rub it in.
