I don't believe they rub...I haven't tried it with a full load of people yet, but so far has not rubbed with me driving on hard cornering.

Re: Post Specs Here......
1. Stock 2004 TL
2. 17x8
3. et 43 IIRC
4. Bridgeston Blizzak LM-22 (VR)
5. 225/50/17
6. Stock ride height
7. No.
I think the 225/50/17 is the best setup for snows on the new TL. The theoretical diameter is only .12" greater than the stock size, and the narrower tire gives better snow handling.

Great Info guys but it didn't answer all my questions. I have a stock hieght 98 2.5. I was looking at some 50/205 15 and the height looked way to high. If anyone has the same specs as me, please let me know what size tire you have and if you rub at all.

1. SSR GT1
2. 18x7.5
3. 48mm
4. Bridgestone Potenza SO3's
5. 225/45/18
6. comptech 1.5 maybe
7. yes, even after trimming the tab taking fast corners or with people in the back....i also have a system and battery in the trunk...probably due to the over sized tire and that the SO3's are have a really think sidewall...got to roll fenders

Advice Please
Hi everyone,
I have stock rims on my 2000 TL, I believe the size of stock tires is 205/60-16 , I am thinking of replacing them with "Pirelli P Zero Nero M&S" either 225/50-16 OR the 215/55-16.
Please let me know if you have the similar setup and what you think about it?
Thanks for helping,
-Stock_TL

dd1818, Thanks for the feedback.
I just checked at Tirerack.com and looks like "Pirelli P Zero Nero M&S" are not available in size 16" :-(
This is my first tire buying experience, and I do not plan on replacing my wheels at this time. Any other suggestions for a good all-season tire???
Thanks,

Hi Again,
Any thoughts about "Kumho Ecsta HP4 716" (225/55HR16) [All-Season Tires] for my 2000TL?
These tires get great reviews at TireTack.com, and am really interested in knowing if anyone has an experience with these on their TL's.
Thanks,
