Per A Posted January 16, 2020 Report Share Posted January 16, 2020 Starting a new thread as i was hogging another that was not just about tyres. i have today 265/60/18 but want to go with a winder tyre and smaller rim. If i remember correct the second number is height of tyre and its part of with so if i go smaller and wider i should go for 275/60/17 or will it be 275/65/17? I want to keep as close to the circumference as possible cause i don't think changing will do anything positive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are increasing the width from 265 to 275 keeping the aspect ratio at 65, then you are increasing both width as well as height. You might have rubbing issues. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
