225-40-18
I have a set of 18 5lug rims im planning on throwing on my 00-c23o k. s
there 8 inches wide I wana know if anyone knows what tire size I need to have the same overall size as the factory 205-55-16
more or less the hight of the tire I wana keep the same so I don't make the speedo wrong and stuff and any clearance issues I would have with 18s (I know if I keep the same tire hight overall I shouldn't have issues but just checking )
225-40-18
thanks now is that a wider tire or skinny-er one and I know a 55 to a 40 is smaller height
You are better off with a 215/40-18 staying more porportioned to height AND width.

Use this calculator if you want to further learn things.

it depends on how low you are.. 225/40 should be ok... 215/40 if you need the clearance..
either way, it depends on your ride height.
well atm its factory 00c230k sport height what ever it is lol
but can I keep the same width and be fine with 205-40-18?
its eather that or run a set of spacers to clear the knuckles and a fatter tire
A pretty good way to tell is by looking up the documentation for your tires on the tire manufacturer's website. I know brands like Continental post a range of which wheel widths each tire size can fit safely. If you want more of a stretch, head out of the recommendations.
well we fited them on the car ill post picks when I find my cell cord lol but I will NEED spacers due to a small center with them hitting the calipers these things weigh only 10 pounds no tire XD
Your scale is wrong. There is no way an 18x8 wheel like tat weighs even close to 10 lbs. More like 22lbs or more.
If you go back to my first post, I links a wheel and tire calculator you can play with to see what different aspect and width tires will look like and measure when you fit them on your wheel. A 205/40-18 would be too short a diameter tire for your car.
ah well only realy one way to find out I was just hoping someone knew a size and my scale is my arm lol they just feel reaaaly light :P
I had a set of damani 20s that weighted a ton in my book but man did they look smexy
lol yes the help XD and when I do the pullys I shal try to make a vid ^^ but that wont be for awhile
So you have an $8000 Subconcrete hydraulic lift in your garage but you do not own a $10 scale- Why do you feel the need to lie and who do you think you are fooling?
ok ok I have the scale I just don't wana use it XD and if you want wen I get home I can take a pick of the doors open showing the house I live in..
