Rear Tire Width Poll
What is the size (width) of your rear tires?

235 = Stock

The poll is to find out what the distribution is of the various sizes (remember size does matter).

Feel free to comment on side wall aspect ratio and wheel size etc...

I thought it might be useful to have all this all in one post for future reference.

This is how my entry to this would look:

(Answer to Poll)
Width = 285

(Additional info added in post)
Aspect Ratio = 40 Series
Wheel Size = 18
Mfg = Dunlop
Model = SP9000


Thanks

Why do you say 255 = Stock? 235 is stock, not 255

Front - 255/45R18
Rear - 285/40R18
BFGoodrich GForce T/A KDW-NT

Who the heck has over 325? I want that wide but I didn't think anyone had a wheel wide enough for them that fit on our cars.

I'm pretty sure neither of those guys are running 325+ tires. Maybe a future plan. -Joe
