I think it would be good for wear and traction in water (like it matters too much for you ). Plus, it's fairly cheap. If possible, I would try to stay with the same tires on front and back though.

Just finished Jennifer's Body...*clears throat* WHAT A FUCKING WASTE! I honestly hope that movie was made as a joke. The cool kid lingo, is shit that not even middle schoolers of today use. The story line was a joke and the movie was pretty slow and boring. If it hadn't been for Megan Fox making out with another girl while wearing black boy shorts and getting wet in a pool with a white dress, I would look into a class action law suit if I had paid to see this. Nice loss of 1hr 32 mins (about 6 mins of Megan Fox in sex mode is excused from lack of quality in the movie) and 17 IQ points. My brain hit an 8.7 on the Richter scale and I am lost in the "WTF" ruins left in my mind. If this movie was compared to a peice of shit, it would surpass Obama, one of the biggest known peices of shit on the planet...

Yokohamis are too expensive and they are hard to find. screw that!

but is it a bad idea to go from a 255 40 17 to 225 50 17.. i dont remember how to read the specs on a tire exactly but isnt the 50 a taller tire over the 40?

...I'd stick it in Hayden's ass

The second number is dependent on the first. A 255/40/17 and 225/40/17 would both have two different profiles. If possible it's best to keep all the tires the same width. I thought you had 225's on it and were just replacing those. 255 is an awkward tire size. Another reason I was suggesting to stick with the same name brand, is that some companies have different specs. A 255 in Nitto may actually be more narrow than a 245 in Yokohama, for example.

[killerSRT]

If you do get the 225's though, you need a 45 series to be similar in profile.

[killerSRT]

Tire width is in mm. Convert to inches (divide by 25.4), and multiply by series number.

255/40/17 = 4.02" sidewall

225/45/17 = 3.99" sidewall

225/50/17 = 4.43" sidewall

first number width, second number height

ok as the car sits right now.. i have 225 50 in the front.. but theres 255 40's in the rear..

What do i do? I need 2 tire for the rear.


Stock is 235 / 45 17 but obviously we are way off.

That's all kinds of fucked up. The best bet for finding a large array of tires, stick with either 225 or 245's, it's up to you. I would either stick with the 225/50/17, and have that 4.43" sidewall, then try to keep the tires as evenly worn as possible and save up. For the next tire change, just do it right and do all matching brands and sizes. The taller the side wall, the more flex you will get (good for traction) and the more cushion you will have against bumps. Just has more rotational mass, centrifugal force, and an overall larger tire diameter that can result in higher top speed / speedometer uncalibrated. At that minute change though, speedo error will hardly change.
