I'm not tooooooo sure... but the stretch looks kinda mild. If I were to guess, I would say its 225/45 all around.

225/45?

i was hearing 235/40 i think on zil

the different sizes give me too many options to go with.

EDIT: i just read all through that thread (only 2 pages) but i thought SOMEONE would ask what tire size he was running. jeez.

hmm could be.

225/45 and 235/40 would give about the same OD and profile/look..

soooo...

either or

itll have the same diameter either way, approx?

thats the main thing im looking for, i dont want any speedometer problems afterwards.

i think i might go with 235s for the sake of more rubber. but chucks setup is looking pretty sweet, im still curious to know if hes running 225s or what.

LOLOLOL my username is my license plate in that picture, lol. i thought htat was kinda funny.

well, right now i'm running 255/45 and 235/40, but when i was stock body i usually ran like 225/45 and 235/40. with the sportmaxes, i could run like 245 in the rear because of the higher offset, but with the works i had to stretch a bit.

hope this helps!!

PS: were u the guy that myspaced me earlier?

PS...

i wanna get rid of my xd9's soon, but i'm unsure how much i should let them go for. no tires, just 2 nearly bald RE070's. they've been tracked, so they aren't the nicest set, mild rashes, etc. kinda good from far, far from good kinda deal.....

they were custom ordered, stupid long wait time.17x9.5 +174 lug!!!

what's the consensus on the fair market value on these pos's??
