Originally posted by taloniized I'm lowered 2 inches in the front and 1.75 inches in the rear and I have 17x8 rims. Currently I am running 215/45/17, but have been wondering if I could move up to 225/45/17 without rubbing.
When I talked to the guy about my g/f wheels he said that we could go with a 235/45/17 on her 7.5" wheel, but when I said that she would be lowered almost 3" he said that the 215/45/17 would be a better choice. Never had any problems with rubbing even over big bumps. So I think it would be possible for you to run a 225 with a 2" drop, but you may want to get stiffer struts so you don't have a problem when they compress?
