Time to upgrade the stock (and poor treadlife) Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 5 "All-Season"
Proposing upgrading to Michelin CrossClimate2 with great reviews, treadlife, and all weather capability. The closest size available is 245/45/20
The Induction Wheel is listed at 9.5" width, however the Michelin tire specifies a 7.5-9" rim width. Is there any possibility of risk of mounting this tire on a 9.5" rim? Tire newbie here. Would it create wear issues by trying to stretch this or am i overthinking this?
Stock Tire
255/40/20 Diameter 28"
245/45/20 Diameter 28.6"
Ran tire size calculators and am aware of the slight speedometer differences. However, it is only 2.5% greater in diameter which falls within the recommeneded +/- 3% difference in diameter when changing tires.
