sorry if hijack this thread a bit.. I'm currently driving forte 2.0 with 215/45/R17.. from browsing around the net, the recommendation is staying with 3% of the diameter of the ori tyre and changing to 215/50 is a bit out at 3.44%.
http://www.1010tires.com/Tools/Tire-Size-C...45R17/215-50R17 is still recommended to use 215/50 for R17? |

QUOTE(boonykun @ Jun 8 2013, 10:19 PM) Tried 215/60/R16, vs 205/55/R16, and 225/45/R17... how's 225/45/r17 compare to 215/45/r17?Gonna get 215/60/R16 for my dad end of the month, swap his rims with mine ~_~ and Once 215/45/R17 burns off. then replace his tyres with 215/55/R17. Since His car got more spacings  |
