Reply With Quoteit would but maybe a mild stretch.. what's the wheel specs?
Got the new wheels on but usuing the tires that came with it (off an e class) so it rubs some times. I'm ordering new tires in a few days for my trip to Connecticut so my question is if I have 235/55/17 on there now I want to get 215/45/17 would they fit on the rim.

Crosscheck your wheel width with the tire size recommendation chart of your tire manufacturer. People say I am stretching my tires a lot on my AMG wheels, but they still fall into what Continental considers safe.
im not sure of the wheel specs. theres no writing on them. its just that everyone is telling me to get 215. i just dont want to order them then get screwed if they dont fit. the ones i have now rub so i just need smaller. do you run factory size 195? or different.Originally Posted by wichipong

i dont know the width of my wheels i got. but 235 is what was on it and it was on an e class. so im assuming thats the regualar tire size for that car seeing it is a bigger car. i cant see how moving to a 215 would be a big deal its not that much of a difference. im just not sure and i want to get the right ones before i order lol

Send a tape measure through the rim. A quick measurement from lip to lip can save you trouble later if you got the wrong tires!
well when i was down at a buddies shop he threw one in there and said it should fit lol. so i guess ill get 215 45 17. but finding out its not the tires that are rubbing makes it worse lol but i need them anyways lol

you should be ok... i was thinking of running 215/40/18 all around on 8.5 wide wheels et 35... i have 225/40/18 all around now on 8.5 fronts and 9 rears....
That sounds like it would be stanced perfectly lol
plus imma space them out 15mm to bring final offset to 20
all around?
