Tire Question

[gonorthanddub]

Im posting this for my girlfriend that has a 05 celica gt w/ 17" motegi rims......

Is anyone running 17x7's with 235/45/17 on them? She brought her new tires to have put on and they said they were too big i find this hard to believe, her old tires are 215/40/17 and we both think they looked too small.I'm driving a 03 vw GTI with a 235's size with no issues. Any info would help. ive searched w/ no luck

if your car is lowered then yea they arent going to fit but besides that go to more than one place and ask them cause some people are just lazy i had the same problem at one point and i went to one place they said no then i went to JUST TIRES and they did it that day

Standard size should be 205/45/17. I don't understand why you or your gf would even attempt to try 235, I'm guessing this is for DD. What first your car may not fit hers.

i tried installing 225, and they wouldn't fit on my car, but then my car is 2 generation below yours
