...Nitto tire question.

[Petrograde]

OK,.. When my current stock BFG's become toast I'm switching to Nitto 555's.

I'm giving some serious thought to putting the same size tires all the way around.

Here's the question: what size?

I'm thinking about running these (http://www.discounttiredirect.com/direct/findTireDetail.do?cs=255&pc=40171&rd=18&ar=45) on all four corners.

They are just shy of 27" tall,... would the rub in the front wheel wells?

Any input will be appreciated. :D

I'm running 235/50/18 in all four corners. I need new tires as well. Been looking at those Nitto's. I believe the KB MM's are running 255's on all four corners, and they are lowered.
I don't think you would have any problems. The 255/45/18 is actually .3" less in diameter. Obviously they are wider. Check with Sarge. He would know for sure.

Good luck.

I put the 245's from the back to the front when I put my 305 Nitto's on the back--car handles like on rails--cannot believe the handling improvement---if I didn't have the wider tires I would go with 245's all the way round first and see after them if I would change--my 2cents for you---good luck.....Tom
