Soon to be upgraded wheels, need advice.
Hello,
I will soon be upgrading my wheels and tires on my car from the standard OEM, 185, 15” inch wheels to some 17”s , but I have a question that I have seen similar answers too, but not exactly. Original tires/wheels 185/ - 15”inch steels Yokohama OEM. Upgrades tire/wheels 205/45/17 - 17” inch - Enkie EDR9 (17x7). (38 offset - which is best from what i have read). Wrapped with rubber- Yokohama AVID ENvigor (H&V) shown on tirerack as a 205/45R17. My main concern is rubbing/ scratching, I would not like to hear this very often – if at all, and wanted to know from more knowledgeable people here, if this will happen, and if so how much will it rub. Edit From what i can find on tirerack, the 205/45R17 and the current 185/65R15 have the same/ similar diameter, 24.3 vs the current 24.4, so i guess this answers my own question, and should be fine, any ones else concur. Only real difference is the Rim Width and the Tread Width. Darwin Last edited by Darwin84020; 07-02-2011 at 04:17 PM. |
