Depends on your wheel offset & drop. A 225/40-16 is going to raise your final drive & give you about a 4% error on your speedometer.

With a <2 inch drop, & +45 or greater offset, 225's should be fine, but it also depends on tire brand.

Sorry forgot to mention offset it comes in a 40 or 45 offset. So 45 should be good then, good thanks. Haven't decided on the tires yet though. Was orignally going to buy the wheels with the tire package but w/tires the tires are way too expensive for the brand kuhmo 712. With the package the tires come out to about 330 or so.

Also would raising my final drive decrease my 1/4 times? Not too concerned about my speedo.
