Tire size options

Yes, I searched.. I didn't find anything helpful for my specs.

Diameter: 18"
Width: 7.5"

I'm looking for tires, was wondering if 235/45/18 was smart. I'm sorry to ask you guys this, because it has been covered in other threads. I just didn't get any help from it.

I would call my fiance and ask, but he's sleeping. I know we looked at two or three different size options for the wheels. I just do not remember what they were since we did it a month or two ago.

Thanks.

235 on a high offset wheels is not a great choice. it will rub and may cause failure.

since those wheels are for a FF application i would suggest nothing wider than 215 for the front.

Ok, thanks. I thought 235 seemed way too high.
