Hi guys, got myself some 8 inch wide wheels and was wondering what the widest size tyre you can squeeze on them for the back of my rwd escos project. I have some 235/40/18 tyres for the front.

What size should I be buying for the rear? & will it affect the speedo?

Cheers

ive had 245's on a 8" rim, i would imagine you can get 255 or maybe even 265, but would look very buldged

How did the 245's look? did they bulge out bigtime or were they ok? Did they put your speedo out?

person i think they look poo. but would suit a escort cossy, but not a 3dr, far too much tyre wall, looked like a 45 profile tyre, even though it was a 35. Didnt look bulgy, just really didnt suit the look i was after.
