so for a awd car, i know its bad to run different size tires and all four must match.
What about if you run same size tires but the rims in the rear will be 17x9 with 44+ offset and front will be 17x8 with 32+ offset tires will be 225/45/17 all around. the backs are a little more stretched but when I measured the diameter of the whole wheel, its only different by a 4 millimeters. Getting conflicting reports on this, don't want to mess up my diff. can it be done? |

You could measure the finished rolling diameter and if its the same you could in theory run it, but i wouldnt.
Sell those rims and get some Volks or something 3 piece so you can choose your own width and offset. This post has been edited by Cuts_the_Pilot: Aug 3, 2011 - 3:09 AM -------------------- ST205 Group A Rallye GT-Four, #61 of 77............600hp GT3582r
