Tire size...

[KaiDarudeboy]

What's the biggest tire size I can go on my stock 07 sport edition rims? Without rubbing and will fit my spare tire compartment?

Thanks!

I have 255/75R17s and they rub in reverse when I turn the wheel all the way to the left or right.

Those are 30" tires. The ones KaiDarudeboy suggested are 31.6". Stock are 30.6".

From the picture, it looks like your tires are actually on the small size. And indeed they are.

I am confused, how can a 275/60/R17 be that small? Am I missing something here?

I have 275/55/R17 (32 inch tire) and they are a close fit, why is a 275/60R17 smaller, maybe I am tired or something....

I think I need some sleep.... damn holiday stress...

(I thought about editing this, but it is too funny...)

According to your signature you have 255/75/17 (32.1") tires, not 275/55/17 (28.9").

Time to get some rest!
