205/40/16's are almost 6% undersized.
We usually try to stay within the 3% range when upgrading tire sizes. In Japan, I saw some oversized applications that apparently worked very well on the road. For example, I saw an unlowered Vitz with 205/50/17's (approx +4%). BTW, it looked great! Undersized applications sometimes look okay if you really slam the car, but then it's barely roadable. Like brickhardmeat posted, 195/50/16's or 205/45/16's may have been the better application here for a lowered car. |
