Tire Size

Hi Im looking to order some 18x8 rims. The price diff. between the 225/40/18 is and 235/40/18 is $100, with the 225/40/18 obviously being the cheaper package, and i need to save as much money as i can being that i am a college student and poor haha...is there realllly that much of a difference between the 2? Would I be ok with the 225/40's? Thanks

Mo

If you're a poor college student are you doing ordering 18's? And as for sizes, get a 235-40 or a 245-40 18, because the 225's will look silly on an 8" wide wheel on a 5.5g. I hope you're lowered too.

I've seen 225's on an 8" wide, and it looks funny to me. "Dinky" would best describe the look.
