225/50R17's on a 9-3 Aero (non-AWD)? Posted by Caarma [Email] (#592) [Profile/Gallery] (more from Caarma) on Thu, 16 Apr 2009 18:15:16 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
I'm thinking of going the safe route and putting the appropriate width tires on my 7" wide wheels even though I never had a problem before. Will 225/50R17's fit on my 2008 9-3 Aero which is lowered 10 mm, (unlike the new AWD Aeros which come with that tire size anyway)? I know they will be narrower, but I'm concerned about rubbing because of the slightly larger diameter.
The overall diameter is 15 mm larger, but half of that is 7.5 mm so I don't think where would be an issue, but I want to make sure. Then I can sell my stock wheels and tires.
I'll worry about tire pressure sensors later :-)
Thanks,
Atul
