The larger 285/70R17 tire in the photo above stands over an inch taller and is nearly an inch wider than the 265/70R17 size. The width of the tread is also a half-inch wider. Many late-model domestic trucks accept this difference in size.

Can I put a 10 inch wide tire on a 8 inch rim?

should be fine. Itll stick out an inch on the inside and an inch on the outside if it is actually 10″ wide. (i have 9″ wide tires but they measure 8″ wide on 7″ wheel). I like that though,help protect the rim a little more and gives a little flex for traction on the sides.

Can I use 225 instead 235?

No. You can run a lower aspect(225/55 R17) but doing so will throw off the speedometer. R stands for radial, if there is a B it is a bias belt type, D is directional, if there is no letter it is X-Ply. The last two numbers are the rim size in inches.

What is the difference between 225 65 R17 and 225 60r17?

This means the tires have about 3% difference in diameter. Generally tires can be swapped within 3% without issue, though it’s usually best to have all tires on the car the same size. As far as performance, there won’t be much change.

Can I use 225 60R16 instead of 215 60R16?

They’ll work fine. The difference between a 215/60 and a 225/60 isn’t enough to cause any problems. Your speedo will read a little fast but maybe that’ll help keep you from getting speeding tickets. Actually, going from a 225/60R16 to a 215/60R16 is a change in both diameter and sidewall.
