kerrys914 Posted April 10, 2016 Share Posted April 10, 2016 I am looking at 225/50-16 in the front and 245/50-16 in the rear on 16x9 et-15 (all corners) I have a flared car and am curious if I need run a 245/45-16 rather then a 245/50-16. The /45 is closer in diameter to the front 225/50 but the tire selection is better for the /50 tires. I have never ran different tires in the rear before so sorry for the newbie question. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RebekahsZ Posted April 10, 2016 Share Posted April 10, 2016 Doesn't matter-you are fine with the 50s. Might help if those struts are a little short too. I have my car in the air if you need my static settings on my struts. We have same spring rates so I should be able to get you close. Feel free to call me-I won't be watching the forums continuously. Hoping to get my car into 4 tires and in the alignment rack today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kerrys914 Posted April 15, 2016 Author Share Posted April 15, 2016 Would the stretch look weird on the front and not on the back? Would be great to see so photos? Maybe 245's all around Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RebekahsZ Posted April 15, 2016 Share Posted April 15, 2016 I don't speak "stretch." That's a ratsun subject. Get wheels that fit your tires, or tires that fit your wheels. The tire manufacturer should be able to recommend a wheel width recommendation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
