Need Tire Size Help

[NismoDriver240]

can anyone tell me what tires will fit these wheels?http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...90405

I'm looking low profile, but also cheap. so maybe like xxx/45xxx. that seems slimmer than stock and not really too much money a tire.

thanks!

From the sound of this you don't know how tire size work?

45 is not an actual measurement of the tire, its a percent. so a 205/45 has a bigger sidewall then 195/45.

The first number is the width of the tread in mm, the second is the height of the sidewall given as a percent of the width of the tire. so a 45 is 45% as tall as it is wide. Third is the rim size.

, but also cheap.

Tires are the only thing holding the car to the road. If you have any after market suspension work all it is doing is making the most of what ever tires you have. Cheap tires waste all the other money you have spent on the car.

i dont have any suspension stuff yet, and by cheap i mean affordable, im in college, i dont have the cash for $150+ per tire or whatever.

9J is the rim, not the tire....9 inches wide with a J is the type of flange for the tire bead.

215/45 for the front and 245/40 for the rear. Unless you are putting out more power than stock, stay under a 25" diameter tire.
