[DeTomaso] GR4 Front Tires

[Tomas Gunnarsson]

That wheel is about two inches larger in diameter than the stock wheel. I think you'll see fender rubbing unless you set the suspension very high and add bump stops. A 285/30-17 wheel would be similar to the 285/40-15 in diameter. The 285/35-18 is almost as tall as a 285/50-15 tire.
