Default Help I think I just got taken! :(

Today i bought some new rims and tires, the deal was Pretty Good, But i think i wasted my money. I got american racing sniper wheels 17", in chrome and Htrz's 245's. For my 2000 T-a. Is this bad? stock i have 245's? Should i even get these mounted? The wheels are only 7.5". Help I don't know if i should put them on and what the ill effects will be.

Nothing wrong with 245s (that's what I run), but most people tend to step up to at least a 275 just to have better traction. 275's wont fit on a 7.5" rim though.

Why would you buy them if you think they are gonna be a problem? They won't cause anything to be weird. It just comes down to if you want a wider wheel or not.

I just didnt know if they would mess anything up. My hick step dad is all rah rah suspension and brakes are gonna take a beating, but the 25's i run now are almost 10" rims, and these are smaller, so sorry for my cluelessness in this department, I've just started modding my t-a

25's ????? 25 what. Call me crazy, but i don't think you can put 245's on a 10in rim, and that is what you had??? Are you sure you have your facts right
