Tire Size - bmxfu - 04-28-2010
hey guys,
right now i have falken azenis 205 45 17 that are toasted i love the tires and want the same one's again. I found a tire shop that has a set of 215 45 17 azenis for a real good price would these tires be alright to use as they are a wider tire? im lowered 1.5 rear and 2.0 front i know i will be fine in the rear im more so worried about the front. from my understanding the difference in tire size is only 10mm so 1cm if that is the case i looked and felt in the wheel well and i would clear no problem, just want to double check with you experts.
feed back asap please as i want to grab these tire's before there gone.

My car is lowered the same and I'm running 215-45-17 with out any issues.
The SVT Focus factory size is 215-45-17 so I say you won't have any problems.

What is your rim's offset? I'm running 215/45 17 on 40mm offset and rub if I put more than 200lbs in the back on bad bumps. Front is ok. Rolling the fenders should fix that problem tho.

I rub hard with my 215s... So im lifting the car up to 1.5-1.8"
Springs are cheaper then tires...

A friends uncle owns a tire shop in bourget about 25 minutes from orleans, he had them in his shop for his son's car but his kid sold the car so i got them for an AMAZING price.

What's the name of the tire shop you got them from? I need a pair of tires, and might give them a call...
Anybody else have a tire hookup in Ottawa?
