Can I put a 235 width tire on my 8inch wide rim?

[AudiSportB5S4]

I have the OZ Superleggeras. Rec. tire size online is 225, but i think i saw someone with 235's. can i do that or stick with 225? my rim is the 18inch, so 8inch width? will 235 be okay? or is that too thin for it. i would get a 235/40/18

sure, i just bought some b6 18x8 and they have 235/45/18 stock. came off a '05 a4 avant. put'em on my '01 s4.

yes, 225 is too narrow for a 8" rim..unless you get a tire that runs wide normally.

im running 225's on 8.5 inch wheels. the stretch looks great.

I had 225's on 8.5" wide rims too, looked sweet, and didn't sidewall roll one bit, but I'm still fatter tires next time for a slightly better ride on coil overs and a different look.

To answer your post yes 235 will fit just fine on an 8" rim.
