thats way to small for an almost 10 inch rim. 225s and 9 inch rims would not be a good idea.

not a stock rim. would that make a diff? there american racing wheels and I just replaced what they alredy had and I have always been dumb with tire size. what would be the problem? I slamed into a curb at a 45deg with front drivers side and the tires were somehow ok. the alignment was out of whack. and I have driven on them for about a year no problems. untill now (driving with a bad alignment)

I made a lot of dumb mistake like filling it up to the max psi thats marked on the tire. with no probs
