Default Need Help [xA] - Fitting Serious R Compound Tires [Pics]

I would like to fit the following Yoko A048 tires to all 4 wheels on my xA:

Tire Size: 225/50-15
Section Width: 9.3"
Tread Width: 9.1"
Diameter: 23.7"

Will these tires rub at stock height when cornering or hitting bumps?
How much can I lower the car without rubbing?



What wheel offsets should I run with 15" x 7" wheels and the above tires?
I'm guessing +38 to +42 Front and +35 to +38 Rear.



Any help is appreciated!

Itll be equivalent height to same as stock almost (.21 inches taller). Sounds like you're going for a track setup maybe? In that case, get coilovers and see how low you can go. I cant tell buy looking. Going down 2 inches should be no problem at all though.

Your offsets are off. Go with +25 offset in front and +15 offset in rear. That would look awesome.
