I want to get an idea of the lip protection. I saw some 225's on a 8" wheel this weekend and it looked pretty good.

Thanks.

With S-03's you gotta watch for rubbing. Even the 225 is a DAMN wide tire.

I have heard that they are wider than other makes of the same size. Thanks.

No wait, his are 18" wheels. Still I would think 8" is wide enough for 235 tires.

18" info is fine too. Looking for 235/8" info no matter the diameter.
