One of my oem, rft is going to blowup soon  . There's a huge bump on the side wall. I want to get some info before I make new tire purchase.
For those who has increased the tire size from oem F: 215/40/18 R: 245/35/18 to F: 225/40/18 R: 255/35/18, do you see a dramatic height difference?
If you happens to have a picture, can I take a look at the difference?
Thanks alot  |
The difference is much less than the tread depth on the tyres. Each sidewall will be 4mm higher on an 86mm sidewall. The tread depth is about 8mm on a new tyre.
If you can see the difference between a new 215/40-18 and a worn one in sidewall height, then you may be able to see the difference between a 215/40-18 and a 225/40-18.
