2nd Gen Non-Engine/Transmission Pic Request - 235/85s on '02 Alloys

[jwoelfle]

I am seriously considering the Michelin XPS tires for my 2wd '02 but I'd like to see pics of the different profile before I chunk down $800+. I think my main concern is how a 235 looks on the stock alloys.



Thanks

Jim

Here's 235's on 8" rims ... hope that helps.

Well, you caught the idea of what I'm looking for... 235/85s on an 8" rim. But I'd like to see various angles of the combo that would show me the width of the tire on the wheel, how the tire fills the wheel wells on a 2wd, etc.



Thanks for the reply.

No got ... other than a straight on from the rear that doesn't show anything. I'll post it for grins.



I've got 265's on there now & am going back to 235's. They're over 9" wide & fit nicely on the 8" rims.



Michelin has shot up in the $ big time & Costco has the BFG Commercial TA's bunches cheaper.

Can a 235/85 be run on a 16x8 wheel?? I thought 8" was too wide?
