tire size for lowered silverado on 18"
#1
2000 silverado rcsb lowered i beleve 2 front 4 back with 2'' drop soindles in front i assume. bought truck all ready lowered.
i bought set of stock 16'' tahoe wheels. tried to mount rub on bottom of the spindle.
Looking for 18'' stock gm wheels.
I never could wrap my head on how tire sizes fit but doing little reading is this right?
current wheels 285/50 /20 not sure of back spacing or how wide wheel is
does that tire mean
(25.4mm equal to 1")285/25.4=11.22'' wide
11.22 *.5 = 5.61'' tall
(5.61*2) + 20" wheel= 31.22'' tall tire and 11.22" wide
right to assume use these firgures to know what size tire to get for the 18" i'm looking at a set of 265/65/18 silverado wheels
Thanks
