Stock tc rims

 

Them's be some wide ass tires.

 

im sure it will fit the rims, but probably rub depending on suspension setups

 

Should fit just fine.

 

i've seen this question asked so many times with answers on both sides of the fence...i know there are people on the site running 245's on the stock tc rims though. ive seen at least 2-3 that i know of and i know i read one of them reporting no rub. that being said i'm sure every tire isn't the exact same so idk about rub. but 245 width will fit i'm pretty sure....

 

It'll fit. I recall recently seeing someone running 255's on tc rims. Idr who it is tho

 

245 on a 7.5 rim just doesnt sound safe to me. Im going to be rolling on 235/40r/18 lowered on stance coils this summer.

 

245 is not dangerous on a 7.5 at all.

I've been running a 235 on a 7 now for years and it works excellently.

 

I've always been told a 245 on a 8inch rim was questionable. I haven't personally seen them mounted before.

 

I've run 235's on my tc wheels. And 245/255's on my mille wheels. With how my 235s fit my tc's i would imagine 245's would fit no problem.

 

it fits, but rubs.. I had mine like that for a lil an rubbed a couple times.. enough for me to go down to 235/40/18

 

Well they are a new set of whatever coms off a new EVO he only wants 100 and I'm all stock besides what's in my Sig

 

On a 8in rim they are just fine but for a 7.5 which our stock ones are i wouldnt but there are a few people here that are running 245s on stock rims

 

alright im going to get them today and mount maybe today lol but probabbly next week

 

Go for it if you like sloppy steering and poor handling. You probably won't win any auto crossing events but it might work for drag racing.

 

Tire manufacturers spec at least an 8" wide wheel for 245/40R18. That doesn't meant it won't squeeze on a 7.5" wide wheel, but it does mean that the bead is not designed to be stable on the narrower wheel and is unsafe. If the car was a trailer queen, that would be one thing but for any car that has to turn, you run the risk of tearing the bead under lateral load and destroying the tire....

 

i have that size on my lsj...

 

and howd it feel

 

my car feels normal... same ****..

 

People lately are really over playing this.

Larger tires are not negative until its like 4 sizes too wide.

 

I have 245's with no issues. What are you looking for? If its handling then its probably not the best tire size. If straight line performance is your goal then I can say that mine work very very very well. NOTE. I have Nitto NT05's which have a reinforced side wall and its stiff. I would not do this with some shitty tire.

 

I would listen to this man. I mean, he only does this for a living....

 

I ran 245/40/18 StarSpecs which run wide on 8" OZs on both my cars, they fit the OZs fine, they didnt rub at all on the front with pedders, and only rubbed in rear with people in back or over BIG bumps at speed. Not enough to worry about. Its too much tire for a street driven Balt imo though.
LS Pedders

SS, stock springs and gutted:

 

id go with 235's, 245's will fit but wont have much improvement over the 235 on a 7.5" rim your just spending extra money.

 

i have 245 40 18 on tc wheels on pedderes. no rubbing at all..great traction!
