Will 245 tire fit on 9.5" wide wheel?
Someone told me it will someone told me it won't. Anyone have any experiences with such?
Thanks,
Jason

Its possible but i think it depends on your offset as well. it will look stretched though.

Yes it will...
I run a 245 on my front 9.5 it's a little stretch but definitely possible.
Hell I know guys who stretch 235's on 10" wheels but that's a whole nother can of worms.

I ran Goodyear F1's on 9.5's no problem, slight stretch but not bad, offsets does'nt matter.

Why do you want to run such a small tire on that size wheel?

I got a really good deal on slightly used potenza re040's (stock track wheels) and want to use them on the new wheels I'm getting.
Yeah I didnt think offset would matter, but its 20. When I'm ready for new tires I'll get something nice and meaty in the back.
So the general concensus is that they will fit with no safety issues?
Thanks,
Jason
