    I can't afford new wheels now. I want to run these on the stock wheels on my 2005 GTP CompG.

    keep the same stock overall diameter and youll be fine. 245s go on those wheels no problem.

    ^yes, just 10mm wider then 245's

    I would run 245/50/17 but I didn't want my tires to cost another +$150. So I just bought some 245/45/17, speedo is 2 mph off, but doesn't bother me. Plus I'm going to be running this car into a pile of rust, so no biggie.

    Just a little helpful info.....
    Tire Numbers <-info on numbers
    Tire size calculator <- check different tire sizes
    Its just a car.......with rust and dreams for the future!!!!
