Will the tyres stretch?
Hi
I`ve managed to write off one of my WRX my03 alloys - 3 weeks after buying new tyres! One option is to buy a set of STI wheels - quite a few for sale.Would the 215/45 17in tyres now on the WRX 7in wide wheels, also be ok on STI 7.5in wheels ,which normally carry 225/45`s ?
Any advice appreciated
Regards
Chris

Have a look here, about half way down the page, "An ideal rim-width calculator"
