I've did many searches for info on the other Scion sites and am hoping to get a straight foward answer here(the best Scion site). I have goldlines with a 2" drop and I am going to get 15x7 40 offset and would like to here from others who have this size wheel to determine what is the widest size tire I can fit without rubbing. I also want to retain the original diameter as close as possible. Pics of rides with this setup would also be a plus.

Thanks, Jack

I run 205/50/16 tires with the same off set. The only thing that rubbed were the little wheel protectors on the tires, by 2mm on the inside rear.

corrected by a little grinding of the rear frame after using spacers( which were taken off after grinding)

Not exactly your 15X7s but close. Hope this helped

Are you dropped or stock?

Anybody else?

2" drop with them

with a 40 offset you can run 215's

I had tried a set of my friends Rotas when I thought I was going to do the Voxx Mgs (well over a year ago), and he had 225/50/15 tires on. Frankly they lookd REALLY bulky, but they did fit without rubbing in the back. I never did try the fronts though because I knew I wouldnt run something that wide in front for tires. I was dropped 2.5 inches with slightly rolled fenders. I dont think Id dare try 225/50/15 front and back. It wouldnt look good I honestly dont think. May I ask why you're going for such a wide tire? Just looks? If I were you, Id do 215 or smaller.

I just want to fill the fenders as much as possible without rolling or cutting fenders. I am also planning to use shims in the rear to make the outside look even. I'm running Goldlines so I am trying to get the widest without rubbing or modding. Thanks for the input so far, I still am not sure if 205 or 215 is what will work
