Does Anyone Know?

I was curious to see if anyone knows of another tire that is comparable in size to a 315/35/17? I have the 17x11 ZR1's in the rear and I am trying to figure out what other tire sizes will be comparable...

Thanks,
Chad

You can easily check tire diameters per size entries at Tire Rack.

What do you mean by "similar" - same width, same diameter, same sidewall height????

The only sizes you will find for 17x11 wheels are 275/40-17, 285/40-17 and 315/35-15. Next up would be a 335/35-17, and there have been posts by people who somehow managed to fit them in the back of a 4th Gen.

What's wrong with a 315/35-17 on a 17x11? That's what most people run.

We have a "Wheel and Tire" forum, with an FAQ that mahy help you.

Actually, your post was exactly what I was looking for.

There is nothing wrong with a 315/37-17... I am just trying to do some price comparisons.... I appreciate your post very much! I am going to check out the FAQ's....

Thanks Man!
