Rear tires look like slick tires, found some used tires but they are 245/40/18. Straight?

 

hmmm guess i'll be losing about 11.1% of sidewall...probably going to make the rear look real funny...

 

Your speedo will be off slightly since your sidewall is now smaller. Thats probly the worst thing.

Edit: Ya it will probably be visibly thinner.

 

You have been a member for 3 years and are asking this question. Shame on you.

 

This problem never came up. And plus, I think I answered my own question lol.

 

245/40/18 is good for the front.

 

Get 265 40's or stock. The 265's will be a stretch on an 8.5" wheel, but only 1/4 inch shorter.

 

265's will not stretch on an 8.5

 

my over inflated rear tire...other one looks the same but with a nail in it =D



trying to find some falken ziex but cant seem to find any used ones with the right size. Missed my chance on these

Someone help me find some used tires!!!

 

You're right. I was looking at the wrong numbers on the calculator.

 

Call them "racing slicks" and sell them in the marketplace.

 

Just buy new tires, 245/45-18's arn't that expensive. Then the 245/40-18 will work great up front.

 

245/40/18 up front when the stock size is 225/45? o_o I thought it was safe to be within 10mm of stock

 

should I just put different brand tires in the rear?

 

Please elaborate on your statement.
