Tire fitment

[e30_3I8I]

Hey R3v,

So I am currently running 205/40/17 Nexen n3000 (shitty tires!) in the fronts and 235/40/17 yokohama s drives in the rears. My rim size up are 8 inches wide and I'm running 9 inches in the rears.

I want to switch the fronts to yokohama s drives but im not sure what size to go with... I want to go with the 215/40/17s but I am not sure they will fit without rubbing the front splash guard.

My suspension setup: bilstein sport shocks with IE stage 3 springs. I also have condor Polyurethane M3 offset control arm bushings. My current front tires barely clear the front splash guard when the wheel is turned. I know the yokohama's have a more "stretched" look compared to the Nexens more square corners. Should I go with the yokohama 215/40/17 :D or go with the 205/40/17s to be on the safe side?

Need to know offset of the wheels

[e30_3I8I]

The offset in the front is 20 in the front and 25 in the rears.

You'll rub on the front. The rear will clear, but just barely.

You'll rub on the front. The rear will clear, but just barely.

So the largest size tires i can put without rubbing in the front is 205/40/17?

bump. Anyone know if 215's will fit? I need new tires asap

Run the 215/40/17 tires. You'll be fine.

I had 215/40/17 on my 8.25 wide wheels. They were little stretched but great traction tires for summer. Can't say the same thing for rain and winter.
