arragonis, LET THEM EAT CAKE!!!!!!!

I like a man who doesn't have to 'overcompensate' and isn't afraid of a little low profile .....40s!!!!!!! you da' MAN!!!!!!

Capri racer has a good point. as you might recall, I run 255/45/18 on my Infiniti Q45 on the factory rim. the 'stock' size was 245/45/18. The taller size keeps my rpms in the 1800s at 62mph which gets me in the 27-28mpg range (epa 22)

Frank Lee is right about size. (gezzzzz) I looked at 19" and 20" rims and the tires were MUCH more expensive, especially the 19".
I'm at 27" diameter and the clearance to the bottom of the strut seat is the thickness of my pinky!!
