Figured this wasn't actually a PPC ad, so moved to tC Wheel/Tire.

I think technically you could put some 215s on a 7.5 wheel, but I think you'd be better off with some 225s (which I run on stock wheels anyway).

i meant to post in w/t sorry,

crap 7'' i just got new tires for over a grand i was hoping to not buy new ones.

joeya28

sorry man i have no idea what im doing when it comes to wheels, so what do i have on my stock wheels? and yes i will need to buy new tires?

215-45-17 is what you should have on them.

Holy crap! Over $1k for new tires?! What tire??

Stock tire size is 215/45/17. A lot of us will run a little wider 225/45/17 on the OEM wheels just to get a little more rubber on the road.

But Tire Rack lists a 215/45/17 as the recommended size for the RPF1 anyway... so you should be OK on the 7.5" wheel. No need for new tires.

im running stock tires size (215/45/17) on 17x8 rpf1's

225 will be the width of my next set of tires

yeah, techincally 215s would fit, but with a baby stretch. 225 is what i ran on my 17x8 +35 rpf1s, but i was thinking of getting 215s b/c i was rubbing so damn much

The 215s will look pretty good with the little stretch......get the rims.

joeya28

i will get them thanks a lot and yeah i wasn't quite 1k i got some other stuff, but close to it, i have all the paper ill look up what i have exactly and what a payed. but thanks for the advice


just to clarify 215 is the width/ 45 is the wall/ 17 is the diameter?

what offset did you guys go with?

35 ftw

joeya28

would the 45+ be a bad idea?

RCZDesigns

45 is stock isn't it? Terrible offset

35 will be pushed out a little further, nowhere near flush but it will look good.

I have +42 on my 17s and I hate the offset, I need +35's.

joeya28

could you add spacers?

Aroddalobster

iTrader: (1)

yeah, but i'd run it +45 rather than with spacers.

Hyghgynx

+35 or +38 would be ideal if you do not want to rub. (Depending on your suspension set up.) +35 looks really good.
