Tire size question???

[gstspyder1998]

Will 235/45/17 fit with my 17x7 wheels? I need new tires and all they have in stock is 235/45/17 with the Goodyear Essenza. Let me know if it will fit.

Try this site. Input the factory settings & input your new settings.

235's are okay but almost too wide for the 7" rims. If your rims are stock you may have rubbing on the suspension. A little less offset is recommended for tires that wide. 40mm should be about right.

I totally agree with wret. If they rub just roll the fenders. Thats what I had to do.
