Your current tire size is too too small and the 225/45/17 is not the right size. Remember, the overall diameter of the tire size is very important and must be within 1% difference that I highly recommend.
215/55/17 does that look like the tires on the jeep or SUV lol.. How about 215/45/17? still too narrow..I never thought buying tire is so difficult. My local tire shop told me 215/45/17 will fit on my 96 RL without any rubbing or any problem,is that true?
