Im looking to buy rota grids and since my tires still have plenty of tread left i wanted to use the stock tires. What size grids do I need to make it work? My tire size is 215/45/17.

Thanks

 

do you want to stretch out your tires? Are you planing to roll fenders? How low are you? Just to get an idea of how wide you need to go.

 

dont think u can.. dont think they have them in 17's for 5x100 but i could be wrong

 

Just lurked WheelDude and yes they do. I dont know if they offer all the colors thos, i can be wrong too on that.

 

You can get the 17x7.5: http://www.wheeldude.com/catalog/pro...oducts_id=5582

I wouldn't just to save tires, but it's up to you.

 

are the stock scion rims 17x7.5?

 

Yep.

 

thanks for your help. i think i found the ones that i'm going to get

 

rota girds with stock specs will look...how should i say...stupid.

 

buy new rims AND new tires.
keep stock tires on stock rims in case.
DONE.

 

i dont know much about tires so can you explain why it would be different if i got different tires.. i would appreciate all the advice i can get

 

It's not the tires. It's just why buy wheels in the same dimensions as your stock wheels? If you're going to upgrade, increase the dimensions of your wheel set up and give the car a more aggressive look. You may not want to go to the extremes that some do, but a 18x8.5 wheel would look so much better than a 17x7.5.

 

or you can get 18x9.5

 

i think you should defiantely upgrade your tires to something wider...stock tires are not that great and there is no point getting wheels to fit them.

 

The stock tires should be able to fit wheels with widths between 7-8 inches.

 

I'm lowered with TRD springs which is about 1.5 inches would that matter though? If i got the 18's instead would i have to do anything else with it since it's not stock suspension?

 

im actually running the same setup with 18x9.5 grids with 225/40/18. Ride is not bad but you will still rub with a full load and on big bumps. Actually hoping to install my raceland coils and rolling my fenders soon.

 

Um... OEM tC wheels are 17x7, ET45.

Not 7.5".

 

..thats exactly why i asked lol.. and so the other guy is wrong, he said they were 17x7.5. most likely i will just wait a little longer until i have the money to buy tires as well, thanks for the help everyone.

 

the girds that where posted are 17x7.5 et48 thats only a 2mm difference from stock.
