Thumper Posted December 19, 2004 Share Posted December 19, 2004 I am getting some spinnage from my 225/50's so I am looking to upgrade to alittle wider tire. My questions is will 245/50's fit on the stock turbo rim. I believe the rim is 6.5" wide and from what I read its possible but I will have lots of tire bulgeing(sp).

Clifton Posted December 20, 2004 Share Posted December 20, 2004 They are for sure 6" wide. It will fit on the rim but it will buldge. No way would I go that wide on that wheel. I would run a drag radial first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ON3GO Posted December 20, 2004 Share Posted December 20, 2004 told ya Ted.. 6.5 is what the turbo wheel is, it MIGHT fit but it will buldge and i dont think you will get a good contact patch with it. a 235-60-15 BFgoodridge drag radial will be the best. thats what ill get for the blue Z when the time comes. mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EZ-E Posted December 21, 2004 Share Posted December 21, 2004 Yes I believe its at least a 8 inch rim required to properly run 245 50's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
