With 235's?

Will you be ordering your tires with the wheels, or getting them seperate? If you plan on buying the tires locally (Discount Tire, etc.) I have a suggestion. Go and talk to one of the sales people, preferrable an asst. manager or higher. Tell him what size wheels you have and that you know of other people who have been able to fit 235's and you want to also. Tell him that after the tires are mounted, you would like to drive around the block a couple of times and if you encounter any rub, you'd like to return the tires for a smaller (225's ?) size or different brand.

Basically, that's what I told the guy at my nearest Discount. The guy had no problem at all with that. He actually told me that he'd let me drive for a day to feel them out. But, I ended up going to a friend of my brothers at a different location. He also said that if I had any rubbing problems, he'd replace them.
