Widest tire?

Solus · 08-24-2009, 10:01 PM

Anyone know what the widest tire you can put on a rime that is 13" wide?

travisjb · 08-24-2009, 10:04 PM

don't know the answer to that but i've heard folks say that for this car without major mods, wides is front 305 rear 325... only need 11-12" rear for that

there are some wheel recommended size charts that you can find on the net... last one i remember looking at was a chart for toyo r888s

A 325 will actually fit on a 13 wide wheel according to 1010's tire calculator.

I think 305 is more than enuff.

305 = slight stretch
315 = clean look
325 = meaty tire look
