You mean the widest tire you can fit on your car? It depends on what wheels you have.

Maybe he means wheels, not tires. If not, I'm asking... What's the widest wheels you can buy?

I'd have to say 235-245....I wouldn't go much wider than that without well modification, you'll rub the shit out of them.

i was thinking Racing Hart C-5 Evolutions (17x7.0), with nitto 235/40/17. Will it work, and can i go with a wider tire?

235's won't fit on that wheel... the widest you can get on that wheel is gonna be 215, but i would suggest 205's for that specific wheel

its just my opinion... 205's are generally cheaper and more abundant. 215's will fit but they would be better suited for a 7.5 inch wide wheel.
