Look at Joe's tires on his wheels in his pics. Those are 255's and to me are stretched almost too much compared to the OP's 255's. I agree with Joe that 245's are pushing it and wouldn't do much as far as protection goes when hitting a pothole.

diiirk, dont get the wrong idea. It's nto so much the look, as far as I am concerned to each his own. Depending on the type of tire you have you may be able to get away with it. Mainly because different types of tires measure differently. An example would be the section width of a extreme performance summer tire and a high performance summer or all season tire. Obviously the extreme performance tire would have a wider section width and allowit to not be stretch as far. Take into consideration that the more you stretch a tire over these wheels the less protection you're gonna have on rough roads. Just my $.02! I hope it works out for you.
As soon as I get the alignment this coming week, I'll post pics. Thanks again for all the compliments guys. I am blown away that other people can appreciate my car.
