tire size
 

what is the widest tire that will safely fit a 9.5" deep wheel?

I know a 245/45 will fit.

275/40 fit, and I think if you do the BFH mod you might fit 315's.

315's won't SAFELY fit, you'd have to take it really easy on corners and whatnot, or the tire could come off the rim. Most seem to go with 275's.

285 would fit, i dont know about 295..doubt it.

wtf is with these metric sizes :banghead:

I have 275's in the back and 245's in the front on my 9.5" rim.

thanks for the help guys (and girl). Hehehehe

You surprised? Haven't you noticed over the last few years how all the engines are now in liters instead of cubic inches?

Not at all really, noticed how theyre all in liters yes, but theres a few, like the new LS based 427 :eleph:

The LS7 is about as much as a 427 as the 5.3 liter engine in the trucks is a 327. Chevy just used the 427 number since it connects with the older people who can actually afford an LS7.

Trust me, i know what ur sayin, but none the less 427 cubes is 427 cubes, and 327 cubes is 327 cubes

Sad part is the 5.3 is a 325, I think the LS7 is a 425 or 426.

k now thats getting dumb. no 427, new or old, is 427 cubes. they always round. LS1 is 346, they round to 5.7.

The LS7 is a 428 if you round it up.
