Will I be OK Running this tire size?

[GrilledCheese33]

Hey guys, i found a deal on tires to mount on my 17" Z wheels and i was wondering if it will be good:

Wheels are

7.5" front

and

8" rear wide

What i am asking is would it be okay to run a 235/45/17 on the fronts? I know the rear will be fine,since thats what it has factory, but i just want to make sure i'll be good for the fronts. thanks guys!

you should be okay with a 225, but i would run a 215 personally, but i like a more rounded, ie slight stretch to my tires. what tire are you gonna run

[GrilledCheese33]

the ones i'm looking at are dunlop sp sport FM 901's, and btw, its a 235 tire

You should be fine, but it'll look like a lot of extra rubber and you might run in to suspension clearance problems. I'd opt for different sizes...

215/45/17---- Front 235/40/17----Rear

I have the same widths and thats what im running, sidewalls are flat.

^ thats about what i figured

If your dead stuck on getting 235's for the front I would go with a 40 series instead of the 45 series which would be a bit too tall.But I agree with RB20 a 215-45 up front and 235-40 in the rear would be optimal for those wheel widths
