will a 225-65 17 inch tire fit on an 17 by 9inch mustang rim?

just wondering if this size will fit ok on a mustang rim…just lookin to get tires just for my daily driver

Why the hell would you WANT to put a 225 on a 9" rim, DD or not?

well because i can get all 4 brand new for 20 bux so why not

will be a stretch though. PM jackdup he has a decent set of 17s that will work for you. think they are brand new and did not fit his car

Why not, let’s see… it will look stupid, perform poorly and basically suck out loud. But it is a Mustang so I guess it would have done all of those things anyway.

you can streatch a 205 over an 8in so i think 225 can get over a 9in,

its not very safe though to streach them but it can de done.

:stupid:

Stretching a tire is usually done on Euro-Style cars - Don’t do it. It will look like asshole on a Mustang.

people will be watching him purge his nawwwwz rather than looking at his tires… he’ll be ok

it even sucked as a premonitory thought :rofl:

didnt realize people were still posting in this thread…i scratched the idea, sold the tires for 60 bux an ended up buyin new ones off discounttiredirect.

Good, because they would have looked like so:

like shit?

Oh my god that looks atrocious.

I exaggerated, I think the picture I posted is a 205/40 on a 9" rim.

did noone realize it had a 65 series aspect ratio. that fuckin tire is like a explorer size tire isnt it>?

Holy hell, didn’t even notice. I think even on my Jeep I had 235/60/17’s.
