Non staggered winter wheels work?

skow · 10-28-2009, 07:46 PM

I currently have a set of 18 in 287 style normally running a 225/40 & 255/35 stagger

I have a set of 4 winter 235/35, will i be able to put these tires on?

I'm going to run 225/40R18 on my sport package rims. I would double check the recommended rim width for your tires on Tire Rack to be sure but you should be good.

Spoke with tirerack yesterday and they said it was a popular option to run 225/40 18's for sport package rims. I have 162's (8 in front 8.5 in rear widths) Some on these forums have said that not all 225 series winter tires will fit on 8.5 in rims, but I would think you would be safe with 235's

Yes, check tirerack.com or the tire manufacturer's website to see the approved rim width for each specific tire.

235/35 is kinda small, should have been 235/40.

Whoops, right you are, checked the garage and they are actually 235/40's.
