I wouldn't run those wheels in the first place because they are too narrow. If you already have them then just run 245/45/17. Anything wider isn't going to be recommended.

245 on a 7.5" rim? seriously? i wouldn't go above 225's.

7.5 is usually the minimum wheel width recommended by tire manufactures for 245's. 245's would be fine.

that's interesting, considering 3/s's with 245's stock came with 8.5". even my 225's came on 8". possible? sure. i sure as faak wouldn't run it.

100% sure. Summit Racing is one thats good to show tire manufacturers specs on minimum and maximum wheel widths for the tire. Everyone I looked at showed 7.5 minimum and 9.0 maximum.
