Tire rack giving me a hard time on tire size, so please help!
I ordered the following from Tire Rack:
Enkei Tenjin 17x8 +45 Kuhmo Ecsta 4x II xl 235/45/17 They are concerned that the tire is too tall. I have a stock suspension. Will it fit? I see no reason why not after all the examples of similar sized set up on here in the wheel directory. Thanks for the help. |

Tire Size
My winter tires are Pirelli PZero A/S 235/45-17 on the stock BRZ PP wheels which are 17x7.5, so you're fine. Look thru the stickies on this sub-forum for tons of info. Also, here's a handy tire calculator,

Tire Rack should know what the gap on our stock cars is. There's plenty of it...

You shouldn't have too much of an issue with them? I ordered 265/35 for my new wheels and I got a phone call from Tirerack. They said from what they see that the tires will only fit on the rears and they just wanted to make sure.
I told them yeah that's exactly what I want and that I can make it fit and they just went ahead with it. |

tire rack assumes you made a mistake until you prove to them otherwise.
