ok...i asked this in the tires discussion section but no one was responding, and i wanna buy the tires this week so i figured id see what people said here. anyway, i have a 99 max on which i put 17" 06 g35x wheels. the tires currently on there are 215/55 's. i decided that i wanna get new tires, and i want something with a little less sidewall. would 225/45 work? or would 235/45 be better? any input is appreciated

 

235\45

 

so you think 225s wouldn't be wide enough or something? this is what i mean tell me why you say 235 im trying to learn

There you go...

 

If you got the 225s, they would have a looooow sidewall. IMO, if you drive on bad roads everyday, you should go with the 235/45.

 

thank you very much. that is the kind of feedback i was looking for. i will go 235/45.

 

Didn't look at where you're living but I lived in Boston also. I'd def go with 235/45

 

oh nice...im like 15 min from boston

 

235 is too wide for those wheels. how about a 225 50 17?

 

That is in the sticky's

 

Who'da thunk it??

 

dunno, i didn't see it... who reads stickies nowadays?
