just ordered 15" rota slips and falken aziens
i just ordered 15 inch rota slips and falken aziens sport tires. the size is 205 50 15. just wondering if they will rub because they are a bit wider than the stock tires. the car is lowered right now and doesnt rub at all.

Shouldn't have any problems when I had 17s I rode on 205's and they did not rub. I got 18's now with 215's and they rub a little when i make a u-turn. Peace.

I rub very slightly on the inside when in full lock with my 205/50R15s on Konig Heliums. Not a biggie.

450 shipped for the rims and 66 dollars apeice for the falken tires. all free shipping which helps out. i know i could have found them cheaper but i had graduation money and i needed(wanted) the rims bad.

They are going to rub in back. Just take off the rubber liner along the inside of the fender and you should be ok.

I was thinking about Aziens for my next tires, but I heard they are horrible in the rain. Is that true?

In the rear wheel well where the bumper and body connect there is a small tab of sheet metal from the car that makes all that rubbing noise. Just roll/bend that in and you'll be fine. The rubbing sounds worse than it really is. It's where the screw is if your not sure what I'm taling about. If your rubbing you'll see the wear mark. You won't have to roll the whole fender.

mine rubbed a bit in front, so I just grabbed under the fender (one day when I was pissed off workingon someone elses car) and I bent the inner tabs for the fender liner up and out of th eway so it wouldnt rub anymore. problem solved

annoying signature, ripping on that gay movie is sooo played out. IMO 
other than that nice wheel and tire combo

i think you need to edit your signature again. i thought you had rotas on the way. but now they are spoons on the way? fedex must work some magic... maybe they'll magically turn your falken tires to advan tires too.
