LOL!

haha... no room in the garage/driveway for a winter beater!.... winter wheels will likely be 18's, but if I can do 17's, all the better (less expensive, and more sidewall to absorb bumps/potholes, etc)

Glad to help,
Tony

Yeah I was like hmmm I dont see anybody who maked that 22" size diameter

Sorry, I don't provide reading lessons

Okay, just this once.

275/30-22 = 28.5" tall, 9.0-9.5 wheel

[yaktownboii]

Aren't you losing the ride when you go as low as 30's? Or is there not a big difference between the 30-35 profile tires?

[Nine Ball]

30 is not a size, it is a percentage. The number means nothing unless you know the width of the tire.

Example,
315/25-22

Translation:
315 millimeters wide
Sidewall thickness is 25% of the width (315mm x 0.25 = 78.75 mm = 3.1 inches)
22 inch wheel size

[wishucould00]

so any guesses on the above picture. I really want that size tire.

265/35/22 or 265/30/22

Refer to tire manufacturer's specs for the most accurate tire diameters. We recommend you stay within 0.5" (plus or minus) of the factory tire height in order to maintain accurate vehicle systems. This gives you an acceptable range of 28.2-29.3" diameters. Wheel widths shown are recommended, and only serve as a suggestion for proper fitment/appearance/performance.

Hey Nine Ball,

Im looking to put 21x9 (front) and 21x11 (rear) on my new Camaro. I noticed that you listed 265/35-21 and 315/30-21 sizes available with respective 28.3 and 28.4 heights. What tire manufacturers do you recommend I go with and what would be my costs for these tires?

Thanks, Rich Rauh

If I go with a slightly wider 19" wheel it will fit when driving straight... but will it rub when turning the wheel? Say instead of the 245/50R19 I go with 265/45R19 will they rub when turning? Basically, I just want to know how deep the wheel well is.

for the 275/40-20, would a 10.0 wheel be acceptable?
