Wheels 16`s

[Tracid6]

Hello,i need help with choosing the right size tires to fit on 16x7 with 40mm offset without any rubbing issue, on my wife 09' Yaris HB 3dr with stock suspension.I was thinking 205`s 55...thx for any help and info.

205/50

yep, 205/50 and it's possible you'll get rubbing with passengers or cargo, IF your car is lowered.

It wont be lowered,i just wanna be sure to not have ANY rub,and was thinking about 55 profile to keep the speedometer as accurate as possible,since factory wheels where 185/60/15

With a 15 inch wheel a 205/55 would be spot on. However you'll need to stick with the 205/50 with a 16 inch wheel. The difference in rolling diameter between the stock 185/60/15 and a 205/50/16 is negligible.

So best match on those wheels with stock height would be 205/50 without any problems?

185/60/15 = 23.7 inches - stock

205/50/16 = 24.1 inches - 1.4% too slow

205/55/16 = 24.9 inches - 4.8% too slow

As you can see the 205/50/16 is a good match for the stock rolling diameter. Anything within 3% is considered acceptable.

Then as long as it wont rub,definitely 205/50 tires are the good match. Thanks

I have several sets of 16x7's, all with 205/50's and have never had any rubbing.

205/50/16 is the recommended tyre size here in the States.

how is 205/45/16 tires with same specs as op? negligible difference i suppose from 205/50/16s?

Unless you need it for clearance reasons (as in lowered).....it's a bit short IMO.

Yeah, I run 205/50/16's and that is a perfect setup. Although I'm on stock suspension so I still have a bit more gap than I'd like. But never any rubbing even at full turn.

Unless you're lowered, it won't look good at all. Too low and even more wheel gap than stock - which is a lot!

well look likes i'll have to suffer the gap i'm going to get with that until i can afford some trd's or nf210s then:cry:
