Then the next place I go to say that the 245 will fit on a 9.5 rim.Does a 245 fit the rim, but does the rim sit out wider than the tyre?I'd much prefer a wider rear tyre, ie 265, but I cannot find a tyre brand that has a 245 x 35 and a 265 x 30.Surely someone has this setup and can help.Cheers.

All sorts of crap of what is legal and what isn't, what will and what wont fit. It's starting to do my f f*cking head in.Quick question though, is it illegal to have 245's on the front with 275's on the rear? I thought they had to be within an inch of each other.F6rspec, I've driven to mandurah and to clarkson looking at rims and tyres so no place is too far, well within reason anyway.Cheers all
