mwcool Founding Member May 23, 2001 106 0 16 Clarksville, MD Oct 13, 2004 #1 Oct 13, 2004 #1 I'm in need of new tires and I am looking into a slightly bigger tire. Does anyone have 255/45s all the way around and if so do you like it? Also, I shouldn't have a problem going up a tire size with the stock 17X8 rims, correct?
