anyone have 245/45's on 9 inch rims?

[davins130]

Im buying some white cobra R's and they are 17x8 front and 17x9 back and i want to know if my kumoh 245's will look ok on the 17x9's. anyone have a pic of theirs or let me know thanks.

You should go with 275's. They would look a lot better. I think 245's would looked stretched on a 9 inch wheel. JMO

They will stretch a little showing the top of the lip but will fit fine. Just try and get a 275 for your next set of tires for the rear.

I run nitto 245-45-17 on my 17X9 bogarts and they do looked stretched, but its not "that" bad. I would prefer something wider, but I didn't want issues with my ABS since i run 315's out back and I didn't want a 275 up front.

ESSENZA 210 type R tires 255/45 R-17's on 17x9s:

 

[davins130]

i think what i'll do is keep the 245's on till spring, then buy some 275 d/r's for out back and then go with that. any pics would definetly help though of 245's on 9" rims.

 

[MysteryStanger!]

245's will hold for now if you cant swing new ones...You could do 255 or 275 as a "nicer" fit.

It's a "diversion"!!

Whoever it is, is signing the posts differently. He (she) put "RC" on the post about the politics...and now Paul here... I also saw one with "Dustin" on the bottom.

It's gotta be someone who was on here awhile, then left..and now is back.

Anyway...:OT:

I have 255's now on the front of my Rebels...They are a "TAD" too small. 275's will work, but so will 245's if youre in a crunch.

I dunno man, one of the other posts he posted like 2 mins after you did.

 

[xr8d302]

i'm so confused.

Anyway, my 275's on my 17 x 9's seem to be pretty much borderline....use 245's, but start saving for wider rubber

Heres pics of my 245/45's on 9 inch wheels, but im using them for my fronts... i have 10.5's in the back.

 

[Killercanary]

Hey... that's not me! I assure you it's not me. I thought it was RC from the other post.

I guess I'll have to hit up the admins about this!

 

[Killercanary]

Who ever it is is pretty tricky... he/she is able to make their signature say different things in different threads...the rest of us can't do that. I just saw the thread with pics of ourselves and it had someone else listed in the sig. OOOOOO.... we have a ghost in here!!!


Rob, speaking of people that you no longer see on here, has anyone seen or heard from Robbie (2L8ULUZ)?

 

[xr8d302]

i'm scared.

Now that's exactly how low i want my vert to go
but tell me pickardracing
what are "mystery" springs?

I want a 2 inch drop, and I'm having troubles finding springs for a v8 vert that go that far.

its not in the sig he just does that afterwards

I have not...but didnt he sell his car??

Wait...maybe Mystery dude is him!!

Oh well...back to the post...what's the final verdict?
