HarleyFDMD Posted August 19, 2017 Share Posted August 19, 2017 Looking for pictures of each preferably. I will be buying new Yokohama ADO8Rs for the front of my new wheels. The fronts are 9j and im not sure whether to go for 235 or 245 40s. I dont want them bulging over the sides, ideally i want them perfectly flat with the rim/tiny tiny bit of stretch. I also dont want the profile to look out of proportion with my 295 30 rears. Any help would be good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Mark Posted August 19, 2017 Share Posted August 19, 2017 (edited) I've got these tyres in 255 on a 9.5J doesn't bulge, in fact I might go for 265 next. Only pic I have to hand.

Bladerider Posted August 21, 2017 Share Posted August 21, 2017 This might help.... ....if you look at the left wheel, thats a 235/40 AD08R on a 9.5j wheel - not a lot of stretch and should be exactly what you want on a 9j These and AO48s are very "square" tyres, so sit flush quite easily compared to a lot of road tyres.

Supraleeturbo Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 I have 246/40 on a 9j Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SupraLEDrears Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 They should be straight cause it has a very stiff wall. I'd go for 245's on a 9j Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HarleyFDMD Posted August 24, 2017 Author Share Posted August 24, 2017 Thanks guys, i have done a couple of calculations and i think the 235s will be best for me. Otherwise the sidewall will look out of proportion with the rear tyre sidewall. Thanks for the advice and pictures! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
