Default Anyone run Nitto 555R 245/45/17?

if so can u measure the diameter of the rim and the tire
i need to see if it will clear my bumper.. my 18"s with 35 have like 1/2 gap near the bumper (my bumper wraps around the tire at the bottom)
also how far do the 245 stick off the wheel. i will be mounting on 17x7.5

Interestingly enough, Nitto just came out with a 555R2 Road course version. Ad on the back of this month's GRM.

I wonder if they are any good?

edit: looks like they are only available in P275/40ZR17 right now
