3% is a ridiculous difference. 1" difference in diamater is huge. Its really not that hard for people to run the correct size tires.

its not really that big of a deal...
I'm really torn about these wheel.. they are used so I'm kind of stuck with tires.. they were on a 99 grand prix so appearently they work good.... id post s pic but I don't know how...
Found another rim..they say its a 5 lug 18x7.5. What is 18x7.5 meanM
18x7.5 is the wheel size, 18" diameter, 7.5" wide.
Is that ok? I found someone with these wheels... they are kmc chrome wheels 18"
yes, that is fine. it would be better if they were 8" wide, but its not the end of the world.
make sure they fit, the 5 lug could be a different bolt pattern.
Found out the tires are a hankook ventus sport k104 tire.. summer only tire.. how would they be in the midwest?
bad in winter.
Yea.... I guess that's another set I have to let go...
Found another with a 235/45 r18 tire... not bad.. only 1.1%off.. they say universal 5 lug.. think they fit
universal usually means it has both 5x100 and 5x114.3 bolt patterns, which would work for you. however, they could be something else. it's best that you try them on...
why are you so focused on used wheels? new wheels arent that much more expensive than then you can spec out something to your exact needs.
I think the price points... I have seen new wheels and tires in the $600 to $800 price range. Some with only a few thousand miles around that price... The latest ones are akita racing style 430 ak3 with yokohama ws4 tires for $650.00
I really want chrome though
The others I saw were kmc chrome wheels with hankook summer tires.. brand new for $800.. I need all season tires though..
you dont need all seasons. that is why you keep your stock wheels and go back to them for winter.
If winter was only a couple of months... then there's 6 months of rain... want to buy the tires? I just want to enjoy themlonger...
What do you think of the akita weels? Tempting.. if the guy is legit...
Of course I can always keep what igot and spen $600 on new tires.. thoughts?
What do you think of p235/45 18 yokohama ws4 tires?
315/40/17 haha, But with my 18's on I was running 255/45/18.

That's on a 10" rim with +24 offset, NO rubbing at all with stock suspension. I thought it was crazy that they fit!
looks like crap, though..
roller skate!
I use this to get an accurate idea on what the original tires to the new one will look like it also takes into affect the speed and gear ratio on your car.
