I used one of the calculators on here and it didn't seem to matter that the rim size was 8.5 /9.5 since the tire size was the same on both.

That looks sharp! It matches your body paint nicely. Good choice!

I second that! Those look great.

I'm going to be doing the same on my 19" and glad I finally found a thread where somebody beefed up a tire from the low profile.

Have you noticed a significant handling different with a bigger tire? Going around corners and such.

Looks great, did u guys lower it?
245/45-19 is stock 19 size how do these 255/50 actually fit?
you guys have less gap than us (stock height)
i notice the 20s weigh more so the car has less gap (makes look like if the car is lowered a bit)

m5 wheels

I really like the way it looks. Its actually approximately 1.3 inches taller than stock. Speedometer readings will not be accurate (will read slower than actual speed). Shouldn't really affect other things such as steering, handling, and ride .

Scheneider,

I love the look of your truck. Would it be possible to get info about the exact wheels (they look like 219m or 260m wheels) and wells as your tire specs?

I may try to do it with my '11 F25, as I might be taking it on some unimproved roads.

Feel free to PM if you can.


Thanks!
