Will a 245/45/17 fit on a wheel with stock height and stock offset?

a lot of people run that tire size or a 245/40 (on 18's) on springs but they are way more offset then stock. i honestly think it will be too close for comfort and might rub. |

Spacers won't help with making tires fit better on small wheels.

They would help if it was rubbing on the spring. All the american muscle guys i know run like a 305 drag radial on 8.5" wheel
After a 3 sec burnout @ 18psi, it doesnt spin 1st as bad and dead hooks second at 400hp/~330tq Meat:

Right, I thought you meant the wheel itself.
