finally got my new 22's and was thinking of a 265/35 front but maybe a 285/35 or 295/30 rear. anyone have different tires ont he smae width rim? THanks

265/35 front 285/35 rear seems to be the most common set up for 22's. Most use 8.5 and 9.5 or 10 but I suppose it's not required

Just check the range of recommended rim widths for each tire size....

why would you tell us about new wheels and not put up a picture, i think this site has laws about this !!

A few examples from TireRack:

265/35-22.... 9" to 10.5"

285/35-22.... 9.5" to 11"

295/30-22.... 10" to 11.5"

It looks like, as long as you have at least a 9.5" to a 10.5" rim than you can go with any of those sizes you listed. Good luck!

r1lorenzini · 12-11-2009, 05:49 PM

well after all the fuss i have decided to stay pretty basic and just do a 265/35/22 all the way around seeing as they are only 9 inch rims all the way around

unclewatts · 12-12-2009, 12:07 AM

That's probably the wisest move.

**N2TRUX** · 12-12-2009, 12:33 AM

That's going to look too small on the rear.
