Tires!

[mike mullinix]

I am fixin to buy new tires. I am wanting something a little wider. Was wondering what is the widest and shortest tire you can go with. I am looking at 215/40/17's. Was also wondering if 225/35/17's would fit. I have adjustable coil overs, and it is lowered about an inch. Could move it to fit if I had too. Any help would be great!

On the stock 6" wide wheel you can fit 215 but that is even pushing it. Anything more than that and it's not really safe or recommended.

If you have aftermarket wheels then you have much more possibilities.

I would not put anything larger than a 215 on a stock SRT-4 Neon rim.

Damn tire places here would'nt give me 215's on my stock wheels.

They're idiots. Where did you go?

Damn thing called liability. Yup dem der idiots.

There's a reason why they ask you what car you have. Next time tell them you don't have the stock wheels....................................

Just bring them the rims and not the car. If they don't put them on the car there is no liability.

Oops, I was under the impression he was trying to buy them online.

Not online, Tires Plus and Merchants. I don't blame them, but 215's would have been better.
