17x8, non stagered, throwing stars, white 95 540, stock ride height.

225/50/17 second closest match to stock in diameter, sidewall only 2mm larger than the size below

245/45/17 closest match to stock in diameter, I've never run this wide tire before

A drop is not an option untill I move out of the state with the worst maintained roads I have ever driven on. And that won't come soon enough.

I rulled out 235/45 and 50 because the diameter is smaller than stock.

Please chime in.

Thanks

Thanks. I see you point on the 'tire bulge'.

Do you think the loss of .4" will be visually noticable? I understand it is split top to bottom.
