I have almost exactly the same setup (205/50R15 +38 on 6.5" wheels with NF201 springs) and there's no rub whatsoever. I went with a bit lower profile tires because of price concerns, but I will probably go with 205/55 the next time around since there's definitely enough space in there for that size.

Thanks for the info.

I'm actually getting a bit of conflicting info though. Some say that with a 1.5 inch drop, 15x6, +39mm offset and a 205/55 tire I may get some rubbing in the front fender during hard bumps.

My wheels and TRD springs are already are ordered, so I can't really change that. I think I'll just get the springs installed and evaluate how it sits on the stock steelies/tires and go from there.

If anyone out there is running a 205/55/15 tire on a 6 inch rim with 39mm offset on TRD springs...please chime in.

Ok, I've got Tein coilovers instead of springs for my drop, but otherwise we're the same. My Dunlops need to be replaced. What's the best tire for summer driving?

Try this tire in this size and I feel certain you will love this tire .
If you would like to see a full hands on demonstration of how good these tires are , just go to the Photo/Video page on this forum and look for Dragon Yaris HD .
