That makes sense...except the 9.2lbs part. Maybe kg?

Or you can go BIG Baller and get 265/40-17 which is only .02 taller then the stock side of 235/45-17. And they are 1.7in widers then stock size!

235/45-17 = 25.33" Tall
265/40-17 = 25.35" Tall
As per Discount Tire....

I think 265 is too wide for a 9in rim. That would be nice though 265/40s

They have to be around 20lbs each because the shipping tacker for my wheels being shipped says 22lbs per box

Josel's been working out, or has elephantitis of the junk. No way those wheels weigh under 10lbs.

Easy with the wheel weight debating ladies. Josel is a bodybuilder okay. National champ in Canada. Sorry Josel. I have to let our secret out. Please compliment the ride. Stop the debating.
