    Can I fit 235 55 17 tyres on standard 17" rims? Cheers

    50 is the correct profile for 17 inch rims,,fitting a wider tyre wont matter though

      Dave, could you fit 255/35/20 on our standard 20's instead of 245/35/20? Whats the advantage of fitting a wider tyre?

        Bigger contact patch, more grip!
