Thanks for replying PRO. I knew i had it coming. What do you think about summit's claims? They say a 255 will fit on a "minimum" 7 inch wide wheel. Im just on a pretty tight budget being only 17, and i dont want to spend money on drag radials. I just need something wider because i have 235s now and i just spin right through 1st like its nothing.

Check tire racks web site and see what they say will fit as well. The 255's will work but you'll still ahve a small amount of ballooning though. I'm sure someone on here has that tire/wheel combo.

I wouldn't go wider than the 255's unles you have confirmed proof they will work. You'll end up short living the tires. Not something for the budget minded.

True, i was just kidding anyways. The 255s should work ok. Once again, like always, you have been very helpful! From one notch to another, [sm=thanx.gif]
