In that, I remembered to take pictures this time.

And yes, my tailpipes are crooked- I’ll fix that another time. Only real thing to note is that wheel bearing or brake caliper issue persists, which may actually be making me think wheel bearing instead. Also, next time I think I’m going to stagger the tires and put 255s in the rear since they are a taller tire and should fill the wheel well better.

Pretty! I had 255s on the back of my Camaro when I bought it and they fit perfectly. I went down to 235s when I bought new tires but I probably shouldn’t have.

Looks good, but your lens needs a wipe.

The problem is the aspect ratio is different, and there are only 2 whiteletter tires made. I think both the 235s and the 245s are shorter than the stock 215s, but damn are they wide.

You can get T/A’s in white letters!

Yeah, I had a phone where i’d managed to get dust behind the lens. This is how all my photos looked and there was nothing I could do about it.

Car looks great though! I feel like I can hear it through the photos!

I forgot that you have larger diameter wheels. Mine are just 15s so in the 60 aspect ratio you can get 255s and 235s in the Cooper and Radial T/A .

no, with the aspect ratio it changes based on the width. for example, 235/60 R15 Vs 255/60R15

also I was wrong, factory size is 225/70, which the closest in diameter would be the 255s

Ah, got it. Sorry, a bit slow on the uptake today. And most days.

not your fault- IMO the fault of the people that thought that was a good measurement in the first place. I have had to explain it to every single person I’ve talked to about it.
