Hi there everyone. Recently i have bought new 17inch rims for my celi and i use 225/45/R17 tyre. This weekend a mechanic told me that the tyres size it's not correct and that it's higher than normal. I 've been told that i should use 215/45 tyres otherwise the 225/45 tyre will cause many problems to the car!!! I really don't know what to do since the tyres are almost new and i don't want to replace them. I would appreciate any advise and any information from you guys......

I have this table of recommended sizes:
 however, better would be when you choose any tire and you will not sure, just count difference in comparison with stock tire... (I can handle this, so PM me if you will need more help) This post has been edited by malpaso: Aug 7, 2006 - 2:28 AM -------------------- No more replicas... This is evolution... This is SS-four :)
