I'm getting 16x7 ET25 all around wheels and i have about a one inch drop. I would like to run 205/50/16 but i'm afraid it might rub in front with the offset.
What would you run?
205/50
205/45
195/50
195/45

 

195/45 or 195/50 for me. Its only a 7 inch wide wheel so dont go to wide on the tire of it will overlap the wheel lol.

 

Actually i know of one guy who runs the same size rim but with a 225/50 tire. That's wider than what i have listed. His don't appear to overlap.

 

205's will not overlap a 7 inch wheel.

 

I didn't think they would. Now that i've seen this guy with 225/50 i'd like to run that. Any one else have any oppinions please?

 

205/50 should be fine

 

225's are a lot of rolling resistance that isn't needed.

 

205/50 or 205/45???

 

Took the words right out of my mouth.

Just get the 205/50/16 tires and you'll be fine. that's what I'm running (Yokohama AVS ES100s) and I love 'em.

 

And you have S-techs Sushiboy? Do you run 15mm spacers front and back? I'm lowered about an inch all around on TRD springs. So 205/50's ET25 should be fine in front?

 

what wheels did you end up getting?

 

I run 15 mm spacers on the rear. My 16x7 wheels are +35, so I'm running +20 in the rear.

 

16x7 ET25 Work Emotion. Won't be here for a few weeks.

 

Did you get the gun metal or the bronze? You will have to come by the shop once you got them on so i can check them out.

 

I decided on the gunmetal after all. I've seen more people with the bronze. I was going to get some black 5Zigens but they discontinued the offset i wanted. The gunmetal looks pretty dark so i think it'll be just the right amount of contrast without looking totally blacked out. I'll definately come by once they're on. It'll be a while.

 

I just ordered 15's, but I went with 195/50's for the fronts and 205/50's rear, mostly for offset and aesthetic purposes.

For 16's, I'd normally say go 45 series if you're dropped alot, but with your setup I'd go with the 50's.

 

Yeah, i think that's what i'm gonna do. I have a mild drop. As long as they don't rub it's gonna be a pretty sweet setup i think.
