One of those tires with really square shoulders or a wide tire on a thinner rim?

Hey dude!
Drive safely.

Wider tyres on skinny rims would mean the profile looks like an upside down trapez, and are a complete bitch to remove since they want to stay on the bead. This looks to be square shoulder+same width as the rim

The sidewalls on these start really square but relax a bit after they’re driven on.

I’m shooting to be there around 5:00 today so I can wash the M3 at Jacob’s. I assume you’re going to the brewery?

I replaced my Kumho PS91 with Firestone Indy 500. The PS91 had chunky square sidewalls like that—although my size is much lower profile—and rubbed like crazy. Indy 500 with its much rounder sidewalls in the same size doesn’t rub at all. The PS91 had a much better rim protector. They may also have just run really big for their sizes.

I’ve got a 265/35r18 on an 8.5 wide rim and it looks square but the correct size is closer to 245. In my experiance they don’t look square unless they are slightly wider than the rim or a square tire,(Federal ss595 has a square shoulder and runs wide so a 245 on my 8.5" would look square but for normal tires I need a 265)

Same, and yep that’s the plan.
