Will 32gtst Rims Fit A 33gtst?!?!?!

[jakez88]

it just looks like u dont need that much of a tyre on 9.5" man...the walls full on hang over the wheel....doesn't it feel slushy? and for 275 yokohamas...damn must of been pretty pricey for rears?

How do you figure that?

A 9.5" wide rim is roughly 240mm wide in mm, a 275 tyre is 275mm wide..

You'de run something like a 235 or 245 tyre which would fit nicely on the rim, anything bigger than that and it will be baggy

275 is just over kill, what a waste of money

For the price difference from a 235 to a 245 tyre is quiet a jump when your buying a full set, I'd save the extra cash and go with the 235 tyre as your only losing 10mm/5mm on each side which is nothing

lol I know how rims are measured man

but hey if you want to run a 275 tyre on a 9.5" rim go nuts, certainly looks gay to me. Pictures above compliments of Mitch to show how gay

Your first post suggests to me that you did not know how a rim is measured which is why i argued the point.............

And i really don't get how a tyre can look gay ?

its a 9" rim you illiterate muppet.

either way, i fail to see how it "looks gay"... i'm guessing your one of those people in that "the more stretched the tyre, the better it looks" bandwagon

Going to have to agree with Abu with this one. 275's on a 9 inch rim? That is waaaay too much and it does look bad. The tyres come out further than the rim is what we mean by looking gay.

And before you flame me with the whole stretched tyre thing i dont like it either. Why have such wide rims if you are going to put shitty small tyres on it and have worse grip.

Perfect fit

weird... i have 245/40/18 dunlop lemans on 9.5's and they look heaps more stretched than that!

also people stretch tyres on rims for a few reasons fyi:

stiffer sidewalls

cheaper tyres

looks

to clear guards
