CTATV Posted April 5, 2008 Share Posted April 5, 2008 So i ruined a tire by driving for a mile or two with it somewhat flat cause I had been in the car 6 hours earlier and didn't do a full look around before getting in. shame on me:lol:. Anyhow I need four new tires for my stock Spec.B rims (18s) and they have to be all season not summer or winter only. Looking for some sugestions. Possibilities so far are i decided to go with the Goodyear F1 All Seasons in a 225/45/18 size for my spec b rims. Installer says they should be no problem cuz the 225 tire is made for a 7-8.5 rim. or Assurance Triple Tread by goodyear. I had those tripple treads i belive on my 300m and had good luck with it all seasons... any ideas much obliged Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CTATV Posted April 6, 2008 Author Share Posted April 6, 2008 so anybody know if its safe to go from a 215/45-18 to a 225/45-18 tire. Ive heard from a few people its an OK switch but i was looking for a few more opinions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G.T.Subie Posted April 6, 2008 Share Posted April 6, 2008 I went from 215 to 225 on my stock rims but I had 17's. I can't imagine why it would rub even though you have 18's. Denial is your best friend Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

G.T.Subie Posted April 8, 2008 Share Posted April 8, 2008 They should do you just fine I was debating Conti and the Perelli. They got some good reviews around the forum here. I Went with the Conti for the rain and snow ratings, too bad it never snows here anymore. Denial is your best friend Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
