Re: Using fatter tires? Posted by MJM [Email] (#872) [Profile/Gallery] (more from MJM) on Tue, 16 Oct 2007 11:29:04 In Reply to: Using fatter tires?, Daniel, Mon, 15 Oct 2007 08:43:11 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
I'm running the Continental ContiSport2's in 205/55/16 on my '95 SET. They rub ever so slightly on the inner fender liner at full lock (wear marks visible) with the stock wheels. I don't know the answer to your question, but if you go to TireRack.com you can pull up the specs for my Contis and compare them with the tires you're considering. If the section width of the 225/50's is wider than that of the Conti 205/55's, then I'd say they're probably going to rub. How much rubbing you're willing to tolerate is up to you.
The reason I suggest looking the size up is that one companies' tire in a given size will almost certainly not be the exact same width/height/diameter as another companies tire in that same size.
