help explaining tire sizes and all that?

ok ok, before some one links me to the multiple fitment/streth/flush/poke threads in here, none of that will help me if i dont know what the fuck im looking at


i always see shit like 18x10 +35 (diameter, width, offset) and then numbers like 240/35/14 or something, those are just random

what the hell are the last numbers, can any one explain?

like ideal tire sizes for rims and all that, how to find a good tire set up for your car and shit

240/35/14 is tire sizes 240 is the width, 35 is the height or profile of the tire so its 35% of 240 on this one, and 14 is the rims size

i would understand if you didn't understand offset, but for you not to understand tire sizes? go read the FSM or google stuff first.

PS - 240/35/14 would make an awesome tire for a 240.
