OEM 17" tyres: 205/45/17 = 24.3"

215/45/17 = 24.6" (At just 1.6% taller than OEM fitment, this is well within the recommended 3% tolerance).

what are these OEM 17" tires u ppl talking about??

I'd go by what the base has, as I sincerely doubt they change the ECU when you upgrade to the larger rim package. They're likely using an over-inflated size to begin with...

With 205/50/16 rubber, you can generally run +42 safely with no up-front poke and no rubbing.

With 195/50/16, you're generally safe with +38.



To answer Tamago's question: Yes, a couple of mm's makes a significant difference on these cars.

You are correct, but all of which you have posted is really dependant on the wheel width, which you have not listed.

Also, OEM 16's don't exist, 15's or 17's only. What is the width of the +51 offset OEM wheel? I'm guessing 5.5 or 6 inches for the 15's and 6.5 for the 17's???

These are the OEM wheel sizes, offsets, and tyre sizes:

14x5, ET45, 175/65/14

15x5.5, ET45, 185/60/15

16x6, ET51, 195/50/16

17x6.5, ET51, 205/45/17

TRD Option 18x7.5, ET42, 215/35/18

Is 17X7, +42, 205/45 will give any problems with stock suspension?

Very good fitment with little to no chance of rubbing on stock suspension.

[bxrich]

what about 17x7.5 4x100 42 offset on 215/40-17 is this a good size on stock struts & trd springs

[yxmach]

I have stock offset 51 with 205/45/17. (rims 6.5 x 17") That gives NO rubbing

[Nudger]

Have a set of Enkei PK6 rims from a friends xB. I was using them to test fit on my sedan. He has 215/45/17 tires and they didn't rub on my Yaris. The rims are 40 offset. Didn't get to drive too far, but I didn't hear any rubbing and even checked my inner fender liner and saw no damage.

[PHXDEMON]

I have the same size tires and I rub lowered on Tanabe df210s.

I am on 215/40/17 and it will not rub ... not sure about 45 though ...
