James Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 235 is a common width for an 8.5J wheel. You could go anywhere between a 225 and a 255 really, but 235 or 245 is ideal. http://www.etyres.co.uk/tyre-size-calculator.htm Rim width---Min tyre width----Ideal tyre width-------Max tyre width 7.0 inches-----195 mm--------205 or 215 mm-----------225 mm 7.5 inches-----205 mm--------215 or 225 mm-----------235 mm 8.0 inches-----215 mm--------225 or 235 mm-----------245 mm 8.5 inches-----225 mm--------235 or 245 mm-----------255 mm 9,0 inches-----235 mm--------245 or 255 mm-----------265 mm 9.5 inches-----245 mm--------255 or 265 mm-----------275 mm 10.0 inches----255 mm--------265 or 275 mm-----------285 mm 10.5 inches----265 mm--------275 or 285 mm-----------295 mm 11.0 inches----275 mm--------285 or 295 mm-----------305 mm 11.5 inches----285 mm--------295 or 305 mm-----------315 mm 12.0 inches----295 mm--------305 or 315 mm-----------325 mm 12.5 inches----305 mm--------315 or 325 mm-----------335 mm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 They would fit on an 8.5J, but - having not tried 255s on the front - I'm not sure how close you'd be to the arch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
