In the event that I need to replace my RFTs (hopefully not soon *knock on wood*) I wanted to replace them with all-season RFTs. I take some weekend trips to the local mountains and Mammoth sometimes and the all-season capability would come in handy. I know all-seasons don't work perfect in heavy snow but I am not dumb enough to use them in heavy snow.

I looked around for tires and found the Pirelli PZero Nero M&S RFTs. Only problem is that they only come in 235/45/17 while my current tires are not that size. Being a newbie here I was wondering if I could fit them onto all 4 of my current wheels and just run one size of tire. It says they fit wheels between 7.5 to 9.5 inches in width.

Here is the tirerack link:

Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks!

Sounds like they would - the width of your front mag is 8.o and 8.5 in the back. In the back the tire will ook a little more in-set as compared to your current setup which runs 255s in the back

I just noticed on Tire Rack that the P Zero Nero comes in a runflat. Has anybody tried it? (Tire Rack only has one consumer review on it so far.)

The XI sports are 159's unless he paid extra for the 161's. The 159's take 225/45/17 while the 161 rear can handle 255's. I'd pick the same size rims on tirerack and see which tires they match you up with. Tirerack ppl know their stuff.
