Post some picks when you pull the trigger.

Relevant - Check this site out too, it has pictures of pretty much any wheel and tire size combination to show tire stretch, very helpful.

that's interesting!
funnily enough it didnt have a photo for my choice of 8.5 225 45 18 but i checked ones that were close to that rim width and they looked ok. glad i didn't go with 9" width or the rim would be slightly poking out of the tire. i don't want that kind of look.

thanks for the resource!
