hmmm, first off they dont make a wheel large enough for my application (i need a low profile tire for cornering and a wide tire to put down the power im hoping to make) and second it looks like they're more expensive... and last it looks like they would be heavier at the size i do need

nice but better luck next time...

255s aren't wide enough for you, cuz that is what i'll be squeezing on my 17x8 rims? More expensive, I don't see which gram lights you are looking at because all the ones I see available are $300 plus per wheel, whereas the motegi traklites and traklite 2s are both under $250 per wheel.......

Anyone elses tires loud as hell when driving down the road kind of like a humming noise..
I've got 17"s with a 225/45/R17 Michelin Pilots 80,000 mile tire but their very loud..
Personaly I don't mind the sound but My cars not lowered and I like the way it looks with 17s the rims look like the belong on the car unlike the Olds up their with like 24"s on it lol

you just have to know where to go


and im actually looking at something around 9-10 inches which will be more ideal for a 255 (im trying to keep sidewall flex to a minimum)

he would also need to buy every accessory available at Pep Boys including the curb feelers to pull that off. It takes work to make a decent Meximobile. Viva Suavacito
