Hi guys -

I don't want to change my stock 16" wheels (for the moment), but am hating my OEM tires, and am looking for something with more performance and better looks.

What would you suggest as the maximum I could get away with without ANY problems using my stock wheels (I don't want any rubbing). I live in a snowy area so I will use the same tires all year.

Will 225 55 16's fit? Any other suggestions or considerations? I really do not want any problems.. just a mid-40's guy looking for a little better look..

 

Yes 225/55/16 will fit.

I would say 225 is the widest you want to use.

 

225/55/16s will do fine. Now the debate is what brand

 

I would stick with 225's also..

The front will rub a bit if you drop by H&R sport and 225/55/16.That's what i have for now.

 

I have 225/55/16s and H&R Sports, it rubs when you floor your TL while doing a U. other than that, it doesn't rub.

 

these guys know what they're talking about I picked up a set at that prescribed size and they fit nice. looks a bit big but its ok

 

LOL! 9" of pure road-gripping rubber! Heck YEAH!! Grunt grunt grunt!!

 

Hey, thanks everyone. Anyone have a picture of 225/55/16's not lowered?
