ORIGINAL: howarmat

thats the stock size
Actually the stock size for the 17" is 235-55-17 and the 18" is 235-50-18. I think a little more sidewall would be nice, but I can't seem to find any 235-55-18's other than truck tires. Where did you find them???

DON'T buy a used tire. You never know what it has been though. It is not on a car anyomre.
