Gcca Posted June 19, 2014 Report Share Posted June 19, 2014 Anyone try this setup or even bigger tire? I know it'll be about 3% higher on the odometer (and diameter)... Just curious if there'll be clearance issues. Using the standard 265/40/22 right now and just thinking for the next go around I may want to go with something slightly wider and with just a tad bit more rubber... Thanks!!!

nickf1011 Posted June 20, 2014 Report Share Posted June 20, 2014 275/40/22 would hardly be a noticeable change. Don't think you'll have any issues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gcca Posted June 20, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 20, 2014 Thanks! Yeah, I was looking at the fronts this afternoon and there looks to be lots of room... I know 275 fits width-wise, but I wasn't sure if the ever so slight addition in height might cause issues... Looks like it'll be fine...

nickf1011 Posted June 20, 2014 Report Share Posted June 20, 2014 Unless you do rock crawling where you often experience full suspension compression, I doubt you'll have any issues with the additional height either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JETZ Posted July 13, 2014 Report Share Posted July 13, 2014 (edited) The diff is only .3", not worthwhile, or noticeable. I'm going with 285/35/22's, which is really the max on the stock rims. If you want more rubber you will have to go to custom wheels. http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires.jsp?tireMake=Continental&tireModel=CrossContact+LX+Sport&partnum=74YR2CCLXXLS&vehicleSearch=false&fromCompare1=yes&tab=Specs http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires.jsp?tireMake=Pirelli&tireModel=Scorpion+Zero&partnum=64WR0SCOR0XL&vehicleSearch=false&fromCompare1=yes&tab=Specs Anyone try this setup or even bigger tire?

nickf1011 Posted July 13, 2014 Report Share Posted July 13, 2014 May experience some rubbing at full steering wheel lock, but doubt it'd make any contact during regular driving. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diablo8c4 Posted December 29, 2014 Report Share Posted December 29, 2014 I'm buying a set of 22s for my truck. They have brand new 305/40 r22 tire. Would they fit my wife's sport? Not worried about the hight. We are running a set of 265/65 r18 for winter. And the fit but I'm worried about being 12 inch wide not 10?

JETZ Posted December 30, 2014 Report Share Posted December 30, 2014 How wide are the wheels? Most likely will stick out past the fenders in back depending on the offset, and no way on the front. Tires sticking out past the fender lip is not cool, looks like they're borrowed. Plus tires throw up all the gravel/dirt. I'm buying a set of 22s for my truck. They have brand new 305/40 r22 tire.

Nick Sbarra Posted March 4, 2015 Report Share Posted March 4, 2015 So disregarding the tires sticking out and not looking cool, will the 305/40r22 fit on the Ford Edge Sport? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simonvez Posted May 8, 2015 Report Share Posted May 8, 2015 I love when the tire stick out. I have done that to all my jeeps. Now I have a Edge, with 20" and I added 1.25" spacers to have a wider look, and the wheels are sticking out. I think it gives a more agressive look to the car. just my opinion 305 would be sexy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
