Can I put wider tires on my car?
More specifically, I'm selling a set of 2006 Acura TL rims (235/45 R17, 9Jx16 ET40). The car they are going in is a 2002 Honda Oddysey with smaller tires and rims (225/60 R16, 7Jx16 ET40). Bolt patterns are the same on both as are the offsets (ET40). However, those numbers are indicating that the tire for the TL is 2" (50mm) wider. I'm guessing the inner clearance will be reduced by 1" and will protrude by 1" on the outside as well. Is 1"/25mm less on the inner clearance going to be too close to the suspension?
This is an unacceptable swap. The 235/45-17 tires/wheels are 5.15% (1.30 inches) larger in overall diameter than the 225/60-16 tires/wheels. It is never acceptable to go over or under 3%. The speedometer on the Odyssey will read 63.19 mph at a true 60 mph. Handling, braking, performance, and fuel mileage will be adversely effected. Let alone issues with clearance when you make a hard right or left turn.
Clay is correct, such an exchange would not be recommended. Reason being the 235/45 R17 sized tires would not provide the sufficient load carrying capability that is necessary for the Odyssey.
