How wide can I go on a 9" rim? 275?

Not sure why I posted in GenD, but oh well.

I have 275's on my 18 x 8's and they are almost flush with the rim, I'd say 315's maybe in the rear. You could go 275 no prob, but it'll probably taper in just a bit

btw 1" = 25.4 mm

17" wheel Justin?

Prolly a 265 or 275 would be best, but you can really check it out of the Tire Rack, each tire is shown with their preffered wheel width.

Choose a tire, then go to the "specs" link.
