Wheel and tire sizes

[302XD]

been lookin at some wheels... just some sleek looking enkeis

Im wondering what wheel & tire sizes some of u guys are using

[katchkillah]

depends are you going safe or aggressive?

[TheLittleDeviant]

Aggressive here, I am running Flik FTD's 17x8 +35 offset, Tires are Proxes 245/40R17, they sit perfect on the xD, right to the edge.

[JDMJim]

yea, wide on the xD look awesome....

[katchkillah]

hey i'm running wider. lol jk.

[JDMJim]

blah blah blah.

^^^^too bad didn't have a 4th place trophy, i would've used that one. so i stuck with 3rd.

Ild take the 1500, get the wheels you want dont settle.. and just run some used craigslist tires. Wheel/tire combos make or break a truck


Edited by TheLittleDeviant: We dont drive trucks, no one mentioned 1500 for anything... and your probably not human... BANNED!

Been looking at a 225/40/18 combo myself.

^You are correct on the tire size for 18" wheels. I own and operate my own business(shameless plug) and i can tell you that the "safe recommended size" is 225/40/18. The 17" "recommended" size is 205/50/17 if you want to keep the correct rolling circumference to match the 195/60/16 factory tire size. I am personally going with a 225/45/17 due to the track width and overall circumference, it will match the 205/50/17 within specs. If you guys and gals ever have a question concerning anything with wheels and tires, let me know, i have been doing this for the better part of 10 years, with anything for 13" wheels all the way up to 32" Asanti's on an H2.

I found a nice set of Enkei's with new tires locally but the wheels are 5 x 114.3
Will these fit my xD ?

No they will not, They need to be 5 x 100 to fit the xD/tC.
5x114.3 is for an xB

Well, that stinks....I found a set of 4 brand new Enkeis in the hyper black finish with new tires mounted and balanced for $600, and he's close by. Oh well....I'll keep looking!

[YELOSUB]

Running 18 x 8 with a 35 offset...Tire size is 225/40/18 but I wish I had a little stretch so I could run some Randode spacer shims and get it even more flush and go moar low...Right now i'm close, but I want closer...We already grinded down the inner fender lip...





Eventually I want something close to this:

[TheLittleDeviant]

Damn thats tight

[Zstamp19]

I'm looking at getting some 18" tsw mallory 5's but I don't how they are going to sit on the car I don't want to go to big and it be a waste of money but whatever I'm sure ill figure it out. Any suggestions?

Picked up a set of Motegi's with Cooper tires today. Got a great deal I think, $300 for the set! So how did I do???

I like! - those look somewhat similar to the Katana wheels I have on my xD, except you got 6-spoke and mine are 5.

Are those tires the same diameter as the stock tires? They look a little larger in diameter in that picture... would throw your speedo/odo off a bit if they are...
