the dealership replaced my oem 225/50/17 fronts due to feathering, but now i need some rears. 235/50/17 (oem) isn't a very popular size so i was thinkin 255/45/17. would that set up be the closest to stock diameters? would this create any ride problems or throw off the traction control? i've seen that 245/45/17 255/45/17r is what most of you guys with 17s have been doin. any input would be appreciated, thanks

 

What is the height of the front tires?
What is the height of the rear tires?

 

i dont have the rear tires yet, so i cant tell you

 

I assume that this is your plan. I would prefer that the rear tires be 0.50 inches taller than the front.

 

thanks bro, are the rears supposed to be less than or equal to .50 inches taller than the fronts? do you know how much play there can be? yea i plan to do 225/50/17 up front and 255/45/17 in the rear
