215 50 R17 HELP
Hey guys, don't mind my username as I'm not trying to bash on the Toyota's. Love the VVTI technology. But I also own a Honda and am a avid Honda forum member. I couldn't think of a username for this forum lol. Excellent site!
Anyway, I searched and couldn't find what I was looking for as this tire size is not a very common size with the Yaris. I picked up some Enkei EVO5 17x7 +42 offset 4x100 wheels today for my wife's 07 Toyota Yaris. She is currently on stock OEM suspension. Eventually I plan on replacing these tires when I pick up some coilovers for her car. But for now I plan on running these tires. I know that 205 40 R17 are the way to go when you want to slam your car. But I happen to have almost brand new 215 50 R17 tires laying in my garage. I had these tires mounted today on the Enkei EVO5 17x7 with a +42 offset. These are only temporary tires for now to fill the ugly wheel gap until we get some low profile 205 40 R17 and coilovers down the road. BUT until then, I want to use these for now as I got them for free and they were laying in my garage under a tarp. They are pretty meaty and I'm wondering if I'm going to run into any rubbing on stock suspension. I know the speedometer will be a little off but will she be ok? I plan on putting these on this Tuesday. This is her DD, and commutes to work on the freeway (30 miles round trip). Input would be greatly appreciated! I already had these mounted. She's going to flip if these wont work...
