Ok Guys and gals, I know this should really go in the Wheels forum, but I want to hear from someone in close distance to me about this.

Has anyone gone to a wider tire on their Tour.

What I mean s 225 50-16. I want to do the KDW in that size, but I keep hearing from TireRack that I shouldn't do it or I start rubbing.

What should I do, does anyone have any ideas, has anyone gone wider on the stock rim. Don't get me wrong, I will probably get new rims within a year, which means I might have to sell the tires next year on e-bay or something, but for now I would like to go wider on this rim. My next jump would be to get OZ Superlugera's in 17" and slap some 225 45-17. But that is not an issue right now.

give me your advice, if anyone has gone wider, would you mind if we met up one day so I can take a look at how it measures up?

Thanks,


Dave
