Topic: Suggestions on tires for Rover SD1 with17 x 7.5” rims.
I know that Picking tires out would normally be towards a later stage of a project, but I need to make a descision and get a hold of some tires so I can start checking my clearances.
I’ve currently got a 245/45 R17 on a pair of wheels, and they seem even a ittle too wide for these rims to be honest.
Ive done some searching and the falken azenis rt-615k 225/45r17 would perhaps seem like a good option from availability, cost, performance and size basis, but what would be the effect of putting these on a 7.5” rim? Optimal, marginal, or foolish?
I should add, I really want to stick with the jeep 7.5” rims because they’re so cheap and easily available almost everywhere, simply because all the jeep boys seem to want to put bigger blinger wheels on their rigs. And no one ever wants to buy the wheels, because they too want fancy pants wheels!
Cheers,
