Default Yeah will a 245 fit a 7.5? I don't think so...

...I heard people had to squeeze 235s on the crosspoke 17x7.5 audi wheels. Even if you do get them on, they will look really bubbly.

Default i believe that 245/45 would be the max siz for a 7.5 rim

I will fit, but will bubble a lot, hindering performance.

Default Re: The S4 has 235/45 on 17x7.5. If you search the posts...

i do not dispute that you can run 235/45 on a 7.5, i am only saying that the optimal size for a 7.5 rim is 225/45/17
