I am going to order a set of wheels and tires tomorrow...17 x 8" wheels. Should I get 225-45/17, 235-45/17 or 235-40/17 tires? Will 225's fit an 8" rim?
Thanks,
Chris
225s will fit fine on 17x8s.....
if you want 225s go 225/45/17
if you want 235s go 235/40/17
good luck.... now u jus' gotta chose which setup u want.
I dunno if 235s would fit well on an 17x8 rims.... i'd say go for 225/45/17s

I run 235 square (pilot sport 4S) and I feel like it's a sweet spot (M3). Square doesn't give you the understeer and 235 with zero toe is neither tramlining nor crashy. I usually put 225 square snows on in October and always notice the mushy feel of the sidewalls immediately. (yes Blizzaks are a totally different tire but even forgetting that they're "looser")
