I really need to buy some new tires. I would like to get some wider tires, but 255/50/R17'* seemed huge the last time I saw them in this thread.

The picture links are all dead

So I am looking for a pic of any 2000+ with 255/50/R17'* installed.

here is an interesting thought, and something to think about... every time i have gotten tires they wont install wider than the door sticker, and if they do they dont warrenty the tires at all...

Pat, you need to find a better tire shop.

My 245'* weren't even questioned, and I have relatively narrow rims. I suggest we get back on the topic as it was intended.

I'll take a pic of mine on Monday.

Thanks Todd.. all angles if you can

Go to the 2007 WCBF and 2006 WCBF and look at Paul'* car and my Wife'* car, both have 255/50-17'*
I've have had the 255'* on for 130,000 miles and have had no problem'* with the larger tires. I know the car handle'* better with the wider tires. The 255'* should have been an option for the SSEi.

Is 255 the widest anyone has gone on a 00+ ? I am looking for new tires as well and want the widest for the front.

49 minutes left of Monday here

sorry i don't have any pictures of mine but i ran a set of fuzion zr1'* on my 2000 ssei and they were great! they did rub a little when pulling in and out of parking spots and such. just have to try and remember not to turn the wheel all the way oh and mine where the same size you mentioned too, 255/50/17, and as far as i know a 255 is the widest you can go on our rims (8" or 8.5"?) i'm not sure but i remember the place where i got the tires telling me that 255 is the biggest for this rim. big difference in hanldling!

Intense is open till 5pm (maybe 6pm I forget) EST you could always call Todd and remind him
