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.

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. |

I'm looking at some 14x7 28 offset wheels with 195/55/14 tires. Will this setup fit with a 2" or more drop?

Do you guys think a 205/40/17 would be fine on a sedan with AOE tigertec springs? I'm thinking about getting these after i get my springs, but don't want rubbing

I'm considering 15x7 wheels with 35 offset along with TRD springs for my 3dr hatch. Will I have any issues with either 185/60-15 or 195/55-15 tires?
I've searched and can't find many examples of others with this setup to get a clear answer. Thanks in advance. |

I would like to know what would be a good size tire to run on stock rims, with Tein Stech springs and TK blue shocks? I'm looking at 205-55-15 or 195-55-15. I prefer the 205 but don't know if I'll have rubbing issues. Please let me know

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 . http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires....omCompare1=yes

Hi Everyone, Im new here with my new bought Yaris I 2001 1.3vvti.
It has 175/65/14 steel wheels with ET probably 45 or 46. I'm wondering if 7Jx15 ET38 with 195/50/15 tire wouldn't be just perfect? In this size 195/50/15 comes so many tires - the choice would be huge. Also - 195/50/14 is cheaper sometimes than 185/60/14 or 175/65/14 !! So I think the best of the best choices for now to me Yaris will be this setup: 7Jx15 ET38 4x100 54.1mm with Uniroyal Rainsport or Rainexpert tires 195/50/15. The cheapest chips aye? The Australian. |

Hey guys.
Need some assistance, i drive the new TS. It comes out with “205 45 R17” can i change it to “205 40 R17”? Will it affect the performance of my car? Will it damage the gearbox? |

Yes, you can run 205/40's without any problems whatsoever... but WHY would you want to do that???

Yes will affect performance, acceleration and breaking will be quicker (due to a smaller diameter) it's going to feel peppier, and will turn corners faster No It won't damage gearbox Your speedo will read a 3 or 4 MPH faster than actual (at highway speeds) aprox. The gap between tire and fender will be bigger Your ride will be harder (less rubber) you may feel bumps more than before. I'm not an expert on the topic but I hope it helps, I'm sure other YarisWold members would have something to say, specially the ones that have done this exercise! What is your goal changing tires size? . |
