Bigfoot Posted November 25, 2006 Share Posted November 25, 2006 Andrew (or anyone else that knows):If I have the stock size tires: 245/45R17 and 275/40R18 on the stock 17x8.5 and 18x9.5 wheels. If I were to buy some some 17x9.5 and 18x10.5 wheels. Could I use my currnet tires (my tires are practically brand new and don't want to buy any right now)?Great price if I'm not mistaken here.

Eddie44 Posted November 25, 2006 Share Posted November 25, 2006 It is a good price. I bought mine for $740 shipped and stayed with factory sizes. You could no doubt use your tires but they'd be balloon'd out I think. Unless you're intending to go with wider tires eventually I think I'd shop around. Check with Bob at House of Wheels (CF Vendor). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1EvilC5 Posted November 25, 2006 Share Posted November 25, 2006 Talk to Mike at AZ Power & Sound about a C6 wheel that is chromed. I recall him mentioning a price of $150.00 a wheel. You probably would not have to pay shipping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anmracing2 Posted November 26, 2006 Share Posted November 26, 2006 I would have to say that the 245 will be a little to narrow for a 9.5 wheel. 255 or 265 would be better. The 275 on the 10.5 would be ok but still stretching out a bit, like Eddie said. The rears would be a PITA to air up. I personally would not attempt mounting the fronts. It can be done and I have done it, but I don't think you would be happy with the end results.Andrew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigfoot Posted November 26, 2006 Author Share Posted November 26, 2006 Thanks Andrew, kinda figured but was not real sure. Sheesh Mark, can't a guy have a change of heart? So many people so critical around here these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
