Heyy guys, most of the tire sizes I've seen on the stock MR wheels are all 40 series such as 255/40/17 or 235/40/17. Is it a bad thing to go 45(255/45/17)? Just wondering since I DD my evo and would the 45 give a bit more comfort? Also with it being a bit more beefier could it give a bit more traction as well? Any input would be great before going out and buying a size tire that I wouldn't need.

Thanks

 

How about 235/45/17? It doesn't always pay to reinvent the wheel (pun intended).

 

255/45 is wayy too tall. You're going to rub all over the place, especially when turning.

 

^ This.

You can go 235/45 (OE), 245/45, 245/40, or 255/40, good luck.

 

Stock, 245/40-17, and 245/45-17 are three most common fitments. Many threads on this already.
