Title: what tires best for a 17x8j rim?
Post by: LaserBlue on 11 November 2008, 19:05

i know the 17" monzas are 7.5j with 225 45 17,

so would i need to get another profile tire to fit the 8j rim?

i hade a standard 225 40 18 tire on a 18 x 8j rim and they started to split after a while.. im guess as the rim is wider the tire will have to be wider??

 :undecided:

Same size tyres are okay :smiley:

225mm is nearly 9" anyway.
