225/50/18???

[whiteman_01]

I am just wondering if i would be able to run this size on my 92. I found a tire size calculator and it is very close to the 225/60/16 in cir. Stock diameter is 26.6" and the 18's would be 26.9".

Here is the link to the calculator.

Should work. Might have slight rubbing on the inner fender liner and maybe strut perch. Only way to find out is to try one on. BTW How do you like those 18" RSL wheels? They now make them in 19" for the 5x108mm pattern and 40mm offset I believe. I was thinking about getting them for cruise wheels.

Too tall. The stock tires are 215/60/16 which are about 26.1" tall IIRC. 225/45/18 would probably be better.

I agree but also what is the offset of your wheels? That plays a huge roll in what size tire you can put on

im not sure what the offset is on them. Mabey to be safe i will stick with the 225/40/18's.
