These tires came on a set of wheels, and well, I don't need them. When I got them, the previous owner said the tires have 30% tread life left. I have these same tires on my 18's and I love them.
Same as these...

$100 takes the set

They will fit.** Its pretty close to the same sidewall you have now, they are just a tick wider. As for rubbing, I doubt you'd have much rubbing with your drop and offset.
**I don't take any responsibitly for any of my posts or actions.

Yea Steve, they're just bit a little bit wider. They look almost identical to the 215's when mounted. They were on a 17x7 wheel

I have read of SVT owners with stock suspensions using 225 45 17's. I have not heard of anyone with a 1.5" drop using 225 45's. The tire diameter is 8mm larger, not much, but that will result in .4" increase in height. Maybe ask on the Jet and see.

They will most likely affect the gearing and speedo...but for the matter of fitting, they will fit, and with the offset of your wheels, will most likely not rub.

I just bought and put 225x40x18's on my 2005 ST with absolutely no rubbing. I can pull and tight u-turn and still not touch the tire to anything but the pavement. 225x45x17 should be fine. I seem to have plenty of room.

Any chance of getting a pic or 2? If they look ok, I might take em. Just want to compaire the tread to my current tires. From the sounds of it, they will fit the stock svt 17s ,d will fit under a stock ride height svtf.
