These are a killer deal!

$78 from Tire Rack, I hate to keep plugging them but if you have 17's you need to get some of these, they are not gone yet.....245/45/17 $78 you'll never find these for that. They only took 2 days to get here at ~$50 shipping.

P.S. spare the 'lower that 4x4 comments', I'm in rural Arkansas. If you were here, you would understand ;)

They'll should fit, the diff in 235 and 245 is only about 3/8"..... I had 225 on mine. Just crawl under and look at how much space you have between the shock and the tire. It depends on rim offset.

Yah I figured it should be fine, I was just wondering if they would fit on the rim.

These are some of the best street tires you can get, when I heard about this on the other forum I tried getting some the morning they went on sale and it was too late.
