Thanks for the reply. I kinda figured the tires would be too big, my biggest question is can I use the wheel at least if I get smaller tires? I understand tire sizes and how they are calculated but would 255 section tires be too wide and could I put a 245 section tire on a wheel that came with 255 section tires? I am definitely not going for the "stretched" tire look haha.

So my dad just bought a Dodge Journey which came with steel wheels and hub caps. He wants to get different wheels and I found him a set of 2010 Jeep Wrangler 18" wheels but the tire that comes on them is 255 wide while the stock tire on the Journey is 225. 2 questions about this. First is how wide do you think he can safely go on that car? Second is how skinny of a tire can I safely put on a wheel designed for a 255 section tire? Even the 19" wheel package that you can get on the Journey is a 225 section tire so I was thinking 235 would be safe, 245 might be pushing it and 255 would be out of the question but I am not really a wheel guy so I do not really know. I also would think you could put a 245 section tire on the Jeep wheel since its not THAT big of a difference but if you could do 235 it would be even better. However, that skinny might start to look weird on the wheel, again, I am not sure. Any input would be appreciated. I am trying to get these as a birthday gift so I can't just go test fit them on the car unless I want to give it away, that is the last option. THANKS EDIT: I see a lot of people putting bigger tires on the Journey, would the tires that come on a Jeep (255/70 R18) fit on the Journey without rubbing? Also, is it possible to adjust the speedo to read correct with the larger tires?

Wow, how much would it cost to ship to 44050? I just came here to post a question about putting Jeep wheels on a Journey but this is a crazy deal if shipping isn't too outrageous.
