i was also looking to get a brute force intake. if i can gain gas mileage and alil bit of power to make it worth it

Nice choice of intakes. Good idea too, to open up the exhaust, too and let it really breathe!

Juicy B, I just put a set of Hankook RF10 tires that are 235/65/17 on my Compass today. They look really nice and I don't have any rubbing at all.

I was wondering if i can put 215/70r 16 without any rubbing or the RRO lift kit i would like to get a set of BFG all terrains

You should, I've seen dealers spec that size for Snow tires. If you look at a tire conversion chart you may find its not to far off. I posted a link in once of my posts a long time back in snow tire discussions.

Hey guys, does 225/65/17 tires could make any problems?
Why does some Compass come with 215/60/1 and some others with 215/65/17?
By the way, this is for summer tires.
Thanks!

You might want to do some searching. There is a search link in the forum.
I'll point you to a thread this time and if you read you find a link to a calculator site for all size comparisons in detail to whatever reference you input.

Cheers

Yeah I know there is some calculators, I've already been through all of this.
I know it's 5% bigger than 215/60/17 but I wanted to know if this could make any problems.

That depends if they fit you can let us know how it works out you.
