Default Anyone running 215s on 15x7 wheels?

I've tried other forums and no one had good information. I'm looking to purchase 15x7" slips and was thinking about putting 215/45/15 Toyo T1-S tires on um. Will the T1-S's work on a 7" wide wheel?

Will I gain much more traction and better handling with a 215 vs the 205s i'm running now on stock 15 x 6" wheels

Yes.

Possibly, but it's not like you'll notice the difference on the street.

you can fit a 215 tire on a 7 inch rim.


You probably wont notice a difference, I doubt many people can notice differences on the track, let alone the street

sounds like a waste then. I'll just keep the 205s on my stock 6" rims. thanks

not a waste of time,
go for it,
if you need new tires anyways,
I dont see any reason not to get the 215's..

not like it'll be any harder to do than the 205's or 195's..

and yeah it'll fit fine.
