Need new shoes. Will this rub? - Toyota Yaris Forums

psykobowler · 04-02-2010, 12:09 AM

After 3 potholes 2 of my rims are bent but still functional. I don't see the wheels and tires lasting for more than a month. I have been shopping around for wheels for my 2007 yaris sedan in polar white and I came across this tire at tirerack.com

sparco rally white painted
16x7
offset 37mm
Backspacing: 5.51"
Bolt Pattern: 4-100
Rec. Tire Size:205/50-16
Weight: 19.6lbs.

I lowered the car with tein s tech which is about 2" drop and kept the stock shocks. I am planning on getting the tire size 205x45x16. Will this be ok or will it rub? I appreciate the help.

With your set-up and those wheels, you'd be okay with a 195/50/16 tyre.

I am ok with the 195 setup. Will 195/45/16 be ok? I don't really want to raise it up more and I found yokohama's for $100 at tire-easy.com.
