I am planning to use my (Select) stock wheels for snow tires, and move the stock tires to my new wheels.... Enkei ts-v 18x8.5
and then go +1 width, probably 245 for summer tires after the stock 225 tires wear out.
With the new wheels being an inch wider, it obviously will change the sidewall geometry a bit for the 225 tires since the bead will be wider... is this going to be a problem? or, perhaps a benefit with a slightly stiffer ride with the sidewall flatter and less of a 'bulge'?
