Im getting some new rims/tires and wondering what size tires i need. Im lowered 1.5 in. all around and getting 15x6.5 rims and I dont want much of a gap. Im lowred with my steelies at a 2 finger gap. Im looking to get 205/55/15 but wondering if it will rub or not.

 

im running 205/45/18... that has a nice fitted look too it.. stock tires i think are 185/65/15

well if you have a gap already with the stoke tires and ur lowered then your going to need bigger tires... if anything..

so i might suggest that if the stock tiires are 185/65/15 go up one size bigger to 205/70/15 or 205/75/15.. but that might be alot of tire for ur car.... the size of the rubber can affect the overall look

 

I'd go with 205-215/50-55/15, that'd be a safe bet for non-rubbing.

 

if you go 55's you might having problems with rubbing

 

im going 205/60-15 and not expecting any rubbing

i'm also dropped about 3"

 

im lowered he same 1.5", i have 205/50/16's, no rubbing at all, unless i have 5 people in the car and i go over a bump in the road.

IMO, try to go for 225/45's or 215/45's, i wish i did.

 

I'm running 205/55/15...about 2 finger gap all around. no rubbing for me.

I'm running 15x7 Slips with I believe a +40 offset. If my rear was 0 camber then I'd rub. Thankfully, the guy that's highly recommended around here knows what's up. So I barely clear my inner fender when I hit dips.

 

thx for all the replies, ill post pics when i get my new wheels on

 

what tires did you choose, and size?

 

well the wheels came wit 195/60/15 with falken ziex's all ready on them and i have a set of 205/55/15 azenis. So i guess when my ziex's wear out ima put on the azenis.
