Default 245 on a 10" Wheel?

Hey guys,

Will this work?

245 Tire on a 10" Rim or is that going to stretch the tire out to much? Does this mean that the contact patch will be reduced and what is the ramification of this.

Thanks for your input

Robin

245mm = is less than the width of the wheel so you will be stretched. Your wheels will be stretched quite a bit. You should at least run a 255 tire on the rear.

245 is quite a stretch on a 10" but it is very do-able and your tire to fender clearance will be AWESOME. Full on dumpage

BUt yes, it is do-able.

My Marketer/Co-worker, we did a 245 on 11" for his VIP Q45 .

Thanks for the input

I am looking at buying a 18 by 10 wheel and have a new set of 245 tires.. so I want to use them on the new rims

I have another set of 275 but they are super huge and I am not sure about the fender clerance... They are a +68 offset though it might work

Thanks so much guys
