    Urgent help needed

    So, I've been having a couple rough days here lately. My problem is... I bought some wheels and tires this morning thinking they would work and it's not. They are 17 225 55 and et30, I knew it would be close but I got a deal. My question is would a stretched tire make this work. I am slightly lowered on bc coilovers at the preset height from the company, would I be able to raise it up higher to make it work. Please help.

    So what makes it not work? I’m not sure what you are trying to achieve with tire stretching.

    The et30 doesn't fit in the wheel well, thinking maybe a stretched lower profile tire may work but I really don't know much about this stuff.

    Gotcha. I’m not sure if a stretched tire would help and also doesn’t seems like a good long term solution but then again I haven’t played at at all with wheels and offsets on our cars.

    Do you know the width of the rim?

    17 inches
    et30
    width -

    Btw the tire size is slightly too tall - Ideally it is a 225/45/47

    Also is the rim hitting the coilover on the inside?

    I don't think its hitting but was just trying not to mess up the fender. I believe it is 7.5 width.

    Yeah that tire size won't work. And the offset on the wheels is pretty low which will probably cause clearance issues with the shock body.

    I spun the wheel in the front while still off the ground and didn't hear anything, but I guess that might change with load on it. What size tire would you try in a bind?
