sorry put 325/50 in the header,lol! they are 235/50/18 tires, there on a factory set of rims off a 08 mustang, would they fit? wasnt sure since they are a 50 series tire .. thanks!

here, ill let you in on a secret. www.1010tires.com has a tire size calculator.

stock tire = 225/60/16 = 26.62 in overall diameter

235/50/18 = 27.25 in overall diameter = 2.32% difference

usually when youre within 3% thats about as good as youre going to get. the one tire that nearly perfectly matches our stock overall diameter is 245/45/18.

there ya go, theyll be fine.

I've read some people haveing rubbing issue with that size.

Thats the stock tire size on the bonnie GXP rims people use and they have to change tire sizes.

well one. There taller then stock and two there on 08 mustang rims which have a +50 offset.

Could rub on the strut mounts. Get some 5-10mm spacers would fix the problem.

how do you feel about 275/40s?

[Bio248]

getting pretty wide, but if you want make them fiit then why not? i usually preach the stock overall diameter and thats about it. you can go as wide as you want so long as you think you can fit them.

I wouldnt put that on a 8" wide mustang rim though..

275/40 will fit, but you need to watch your offsets
