Fronts look like 7's or 7.5's. I know that Mikey had to flare his rear fenders to get 9's under his Ghia with standard arms.

I can assure you they are 9's.

I had to tell a girlfriend this once after she said it looked like a 7 ...... " Would you believe me if I held a ruler up to it?" ...... And I feel weirder saying it to you right now.

Pics of said ruler holding will be up tommorow night then I guess.

As soon as I saw the pics, I thought the same exact thing... 7's or 7 1/2's.

Are you sure your not measuring the tires? a 205/40/17 is probably about
8 1/2" wide. The rim used for a 205/40/17 is usually either a 7 or 7 1/2.

It's a 245-40-17 on a 17" x 9" wheel with a 55 offset.

Sorry for ****ty pic.

[johnnyvee]

is there any performance reason to put 9's in the front

Evacuates the wallet faster than the 7" wide versions

thats blantantly not a 9........

[DORIGTT]

It appears to start at the 1" mark and go to 9 1/2" or so.

The sticker does say 'BIG-UN' though.

[1303R]

a 9 inch rim will have an overall size of about 10inch. 9 inch is inside lip where tyre sits. could squeeze a 245 on a 7 1/2 or 8 but you could also swap stickers over...............

Not only that, but he's measuring the Tire. Not the rim. And even when
you measure the rim, its the inside measurement, not the outsite measurement.

A 7" rim is almost 8" wide.
A 9" rim is almost 10" wide

I still dont think thats a 9 my friend.

Lets see the stampings on the back where it says 17 x 9 et55
