Nexen winter tires from Wallmart?

Does anyone has experience with these tires (Nexen WG231 175-65-14)? They are $61 in Canadian Wallmart and they are made in China.

Nexen tires are made in Korea. Never had experience with the ones you mentioned, but Nexen brand is pretty good.

Maybe you were looking at Nankang?

has anyone tried a 16x8 +30 offset on the rears of the sedan?
going for a flush look, what's the maximum backspacing/frontspacing at the rears without hitting the fenders or using spacers?

What's the best tire size I should get? Picked up some 15x7 +27 all around. Going to have coilovers with a 1.5-2 finger fender gap

Probably 195/60-55 or 205/60-55 would be good with rub.

Fitment depends on wheel width, offset, and suspension mods.


185/60/15 = 23.7*
195/60/15 = 24.2*
195/55/15 = 23.4*
205/55/15 = 23.9*
195/50/15 = 22.7
205/50/15 = 23.1* (Most lowered applications)
215/50/15 = 23.5
225/50/15 = 23.9
^from first page of theread^
Maybe I'm reading this chart wrong, but wouldn't the 205/55/15 be closer to stock tire height than the 205/50/15? (23.9" high vs 23.1" high)
Thanks again!

Depends on which OEM size you go off of, I have always went off of the 175/65/14 tires that come on the base model - which is 23" tall.

At least on my speedometer (with my GPS and an iPhone app that tells speed) - this has always been more accurate than the larger 185/60/15 upgraded tire size that comes on the 15" package.

Oh I see that now. I was going off the 185/60/15's which is what I have now.
One last one.. will the 215/50/15's rub with the ET37 offset?

Hi guys =) first time to post ( I live in Sweden so my English may not bet perfect)
I will get my new yaris soon (1,33 Style 5d) and for the summer i thought i would buy some new rims most likely 17" (does 17" fit even if I lower the car with springs?)
And what´s the best tire option for 17" rims? Offset?

Grateful for help
