IWSTI Addict since: Dec 2007 Trader Rating: (0) |  Maximum difference in tire diameters? hit a pot hole the size of something really big times ten on the highway the other night.. it bent my left front rim and put a bubble in the sidewall  I literally just got these new tires put on, less than 3 thousand miles on them I got the warranty for the tires so im assuming they will hook me up with one new one, but im worried there might be too much variation between sizes... how much is too much? Will 1/16 of an inch screw my drivetrain up? This ad is not endorsed by this member. Please register or login to hide this ad. |

| Platinum Member | Re: Maximum difference in tire diameters? 1/4" max difference in circumference. So that would be a bit more than 1/16" in diameter. Probably easier to measure tread depth, in which case you wouldn't want much more than ~ 1/32" difference. |

IWSTI Addict since: Dec 2007 Trader Rating: (0) | Re: Maximum difference in tire diameters? just an update, ran to STS and it was 16 bucks for a new tire since I got the warranty  +1 for them, im pretty happy right now. Now I wonder if I can get the township to buy me a new rim! This ad is not endorsed by this member. Please register or login to hide this ad. |
