Need new tires for steelies
Winter is around the corner, my tires are bald and its time for new ones. Would 215/55/16 fit without rubbing or should I just stay with 205/55/16? Anybody running 225s on stock wheels? I have TRD lowering springs. Thanks

On TRD springs and OEM steelies, 215/55-16 will fit fine w/o rubbing, and so will 225/50-16. Personally I consider the 225's too wide for a 6.5" wheel, but I know some people do it.

Cionide is right. 225 is a tad too wide for a 6.5 Wheel. Wider tires such as the dunlop direzza, or any yokohama, will look and sit even wider. The only real "side effect" is possible premature edge wear due to the hangover. Some say you loose traction in the corners as well and loss of stability with the extra "hangover" (for lack of better words) Then again the same can be said for those of us who poke and strech!!!!
