Can I run 235mm tires on 7.5" wide wheels?
Or should I go with 225? I have 215/45/18 right now and am about to purchase some Nitto NT555. I'm thinking about 225/40/18 but if the 235's would fit I might consider them. I'm looking for a slightly more filled out wheel well and know I won't get much from a few mm, but anything helps.

If You Look at the Spec. Chart Area When Looking at the Tires ,It will Give Rim Size Needed , Dia. of Tire & Rev's Per Mile.
I would Try the 225/50's If using 17"
On the 18" It gets Harder to get the Right Dia. , but seems
25.5 Dia. Deviation from Stock 24.9 wouldn't interfere .
I done some Traveling around Your Area , Lots of Country Rds. - Small Country Roads , Yet there are some - Nice Smooth Roads - Not as Bad as NY.
I'd Be Careful on the Low Profiles .

i have 245/40r18 on 7.5 medusas no problem at all. the only one is that you cant lowered your car cause you'll have rubbing issues all over .
