225 width tires?

[suda]

Will 225/50-15's fit on a Sol? They would be going on 15X6 in. offset 45 wheels, so the tread width should be pinched to about 215 (6 in. is the smallesst width in the design range for that tread width). Also, stock suspension. Will they rub? Will they stick out?

probably all of the above...and the tread width isnt gunna shrink because of the smaller rims..they will just shelf out the sides

[suda]

right, but wont that effect the total width of the tire?

[soul 93]

no..the inner diameter will pull in but the tread side will stay the same...will look kinda like guile's haircut from streetfighter II...if ur old enough to remember that, shit was the jam back in the day

I have Front: 17x8, 235x35x17, Rear: 18x10, 275x40x18 with widebody and still hits inner side of fender when bumps hit hard.
I think your tire may hit fender even with 225.
