Default 245/40R17's on 05 rsx-s 17's?????

I can get a SMOKIN deal on some bfg drag radials BUT they are 245/40r17's. Is there any way in hell they will fit on 17" type-s wheels? Thanks fellas!!

i think you will need something like 8 or maybe even 8.5 to get 245s on there.

why do you need drag radials for your stock tires?

I think the widest our stock wheels can take is 225?
I think you need at least a 7.5

They'll fit...but a 7" wheel width is certainly not optimal for that large of a tire.

I've got 245-40-17 but on my 17x9 front wheels. Don't think you would be want those on the stock wheels though.
