Read evidence and context

Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

Discussions that performed work without a confirmed outcome: 1

0 original-poster resolution reports. Counts can overlap; they are not unique people or a success rate.

0 discussions have direct query context; 0 report a fix in that context. Other evidence may inherit the discussion’s subject.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Topic says it all. Can I go with a 235/40/18 ? Chad

POST 2Original post

Yes it can.

POST 3Original post

I am running 245s in the front. Alex

POST 4Original post

Salazar, are you running 265 or 285 in the rear? I'm assuming this contributes to making the car easier to "rotate", no?

POST 5Original post

You can easily go to a 245 width tire on an 8" wheel. I think you could possibly fit a 255 on there as well.

POST 6Original post

Stiles---285 rear. I am using 2.5 degrees of camber front and stiff rear sway bar settings to get the front to plant and the rear to rotate a very little. Alex

POST 7Original post

tirerack.com has a function on their website that will tell you the range of tire size width that can go on a specified size rim. I'll see if I can get that link for you.........standby

POST 8Original post

Sorry, no link since it is tire specific. Basically all you have to do is select a tire (brand and size) then clic on the "specs" tab and it will tell you the rim size that size tire will work on. For example, a 255 will work on a 8-9.5" rim (8 min...9.5 max)
