is your rolling diameter the same?...if not your not doing your transfer case and front diff any favours.

Yeah man!

Front is 235 / 45 / 17R

Rear is 245 / 45 / 17R

LOL! I made sure and my mechanic fitted them on and he knows what he's doing.

just so you know, your rolling diameters are slightly different.

side wall measurment is calculated by (in the above example) finding 45% of 235 which is 105.75, and dividing by two (52.875). This is your side wall in mm, or pretty close anyway.

your other tyre is 55.125, its fark all and i dont know if it makes a difference but yeah...

I see.

Iam not to sure myself as my mechanic sorted out the correct tyres for me.

So what you just explained about the side wall measurements, is that also how to work out the rolling diametres..?

52.875 and 55.125

As you have worked out?

i guess it would be the above measurements x2 for the top and bottom side walls of the tyre + your rim diametre in mm. :rofl:

.....i think!

Alright cool!

Well I need new rear tyres soon, so I ask my mechanic to explain to me the rolling diametre and the rest.

Thanks everyone!

you should be using width same with tyres....245 all round 4 example... hmmmm regret selling my te's now :P

The front are abit smaller so I don't get any side wall rubbing against the tyres.

What wheels you got now?

    • I would be surprised if that wasn't the issue. It's probably telling you, that even if you remove the plastic liner, you may have some other clearance issues that may occur too in some scenarios. IE, tyre to guard. It looks like someone has already rolled the lip, but you may still have issues in the future IE, turning and hitting a bump etc. The fact it changes how bad it makes the noise when you are going backward vs forward is highly indicative that it's the tyre rubbing. They do make a terrible sound, even if you're only pushing a project car that has a liner hanging down on a tyre!   Has the car been lowered? If it has been, what is the measurement from the centre of the wheel hub to the lip of the guard straight up?

    • Mark's a bit smarter than people give him credit... He'd convince the person that is to become dead, to drive him to the forest first. That way his car has no evidence in it, and he's free to dispose of their vehicle permanently how he sees fit too...
    • But if you had to go bury a body in the forest, would you not put that in the boot? Most of them are >=90kg these days.
    • That could easily make a horrible noise. +1 to the benefits of: a) Disclosing all relevant information when asking questions such as these, b) Actually going out and having a look at your own car, seeing as you're the one there, and we're not!
