I'll be lowering my 98 max with either H&R's or Maxspeed springs when I put my rims on. I bought a set of Konigs: 18 X 7.5 - Konig recommends 225/40, is that the best tire size to use? Or can I go 235/40? or 225/45?? Thanks

uhmm, anyone?

 

What is your stock tire size? This might help you:

I have no idea, I have the stock 15'' hubbies for the 98

Read the sidewall on your tire. I have the 1995 SE... stock tire size 215/60/15. Yours is 205/65/15?? I dunno... look at your sidewall and tell me what it says... or you can go plug it into that link I posted.

Good luck.

 

i use to have 18x7.5 and I had 225/40. I was told that 235/40 wouldn't look too right because the rim wasn't wide enough.

 

215 225 or 235 will fit



get the 225..

 

235 should fit fine on 7.5" wide rims. But are you going for looks or performance?
