ok ii nedded some new tires so i decided to order some yokohama tires...i also decided to stick with the saemtire size, which is 235/45/17..i got my new tires last night and when i stacked them up next to my old tires and then i found out that the stack of new tires is about 2 inches taller than my stack of old tires......does this mean my tires will stick out at all??

My friend put 225/55/16 and the side walls were a little "fatter" but they are also taller, which got rid of our fugly wheel gap but you probably don't have that problem with 17" wheels.

im not worried about wheel gap cuz i ordered my air ride kit last week.....i jsut dont want my tires to stick out at all.......

did u stack them up against the rims and tires or just the tires, they probably look a little phatter but i doubt it will make a difference. Air Ride = SiCk

i stacked them up the my rims which i have my old tires on......so in 1 pile i have my rims wiht my old tires and in the 2nd pile i have my 4 new tires.....and the stack of new tires is about 2 inches taller...so im thinking that its gonna stick out some......y would it stick out if i i have the same exact size?????i donno ill just have to wait till i get my tires put on my rims i guess......air ride = less than 2 weeks until its installed......cant wait!

Same size, but they are different?
Is that the "Grandmother symptom" they get shorter as they get older?
