Theride Posted October 30, 2011 Share Posted October 30, 2011 Can stock tire fit on a rim thats 17x7.5? what would the problem/changes be being that 7.5 is wider than the stock's 7 inch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mwiener2 Posted October 30, 2011 Share Posted October 30, 2011 Will it fit, yes. Is it a good setup, no. Tire will be stretched too much and will have poor handling characteristics.

cabin Posted October 31, 2011 Share Posted October 31, 2011 It's .5" of wheel width, you will hardly notice a difference. It might be stretched if you were going to a 9" wide wheel, but a 7.5", no way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krzyss Posted October 31, 2011 Share Posted October 31, 2011 Learn to use the Internet. Tirerack and manufacturers provide information about "Rim Width Range" http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires.jsp?tireMake=Yokohama&tireModel=ADVAN+A82A&partnum=05VR782A&vehicleSearch=true&fromCompare1=yes&autoMake=Subaru&autoYear=2006&autoModel=Legacy Sedan 2.5I&autoModClar=Limited&tab=Specs and it says that it is 5.5-7.5". If you want to go outside of the range then it is time to ask here. Krzys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
