[QUOTE]Originally posted by iceman302: [QB] 255/25.4 gives you a width of 10.04" then you take that number and multiply by the aspect ratio (.40). That gives you the height of one sidewall = 4.016" x 2 sidewalls = 8.03 and then you add the rim height of 18". The total tire height is 26.03". There are variations by manufacturer but the calculation is almost always spot on. That would put you .35" taller than a 245/45/17. You will gain about .7" over the 265/35/18 that you're running by going to a 255/40/18. The other important factor when you're trying to close up fender gap is that only half of the total gain in height is on the top side. [/QB][/QUOTE]
