I cant find this info anywhere on the web, maybe someone knows of a site that has the info.

I have the stock 235/55zr17 on my car and want to know if the new deep dish bullits 17x10.5 (the ones like Brad got from mustangtuning.com) will safely fit that tire. Or do I have to wait till i need new tires? My wife will never go for me buying new tires just because. The rims, I think i can talk her into.

Many thanks,
Tony

you will definately need new tires for a rim that wide.

you definately cannot put the stock tires on a rim that wide. From what I read, a rim that size is meant for 275-315, however you can get a 255 to fit on it, barely, not recommended.
