225/50/15's RS305's fit and 225/50/15 ES100's fit, with Ronals and euro weaves.
Why are you going up in wheel width? You dont need to.
My front fenders are not even rolled.

okay cool thanks.

I thought it might help in the future future future. But it's probably not even worth thinking about now, but I was fucking bored in my cubicle with nothing to do so I guess it didn't hurt.

When I use up my tires on both sets of my wheels I'm selling them and getting Team Dynamics. No need to worry about wider yet, or possibly period now that I'm out of the corporate bore.

I have 225's on mine with no problems. How much negative camber do you have? I am running -2.5 degrees and have about 1/4" clearance with my flattened inner lips. granted my 225's are narrow (falken ziex) so YMMV

you think falken azenis 615s 225-50-15 would fit?

my uncle is an accountant at a machine shop, i may lathe 7mm off if i can for a decent price


i highly desire having more sidewall for more comfy ride. (and 205/55-15 are more expensive than 225-50-15 at least for ziex 512s). I could always go that route as well i guess.... bleh


what is your ride height?!?

[2002maniac]

Is falken ever going to release the 615 in 225/50/15? Edgeracing told me that they will have the 225/45/15 Hankook RS2's some time next month.

I was going to go with those but I'll probably be selling my koseis when my 16x8 Rotas arrive.

[rwh11385]

fuck me. i meant hankook rs2s will be in 225/50 and 225/45, or Jay said something along those lines


how are 512s for auto-x??

225/50/15 RT-615's promised for the end of '06. Then again, they promised them for the middle of '05, too.

225/45/15 and 225/50/15 R-S2's in April. I'd bet on these actually surfacing.

FWIW, I put my ET25 16's up for sale the day I heard this; they were picked up today. The only reason I got them was for 225/45/16 R-S2s, but screw that now. 15's FTW.

[rwh11385]

hmm. let's just hope that 225/50-15s R-S2s fit on my 15x7 ET17 Koseis.

Bimmer8604's friend has some 225s on his ET15 Ronals, so hopefully I can get that to work...

If not... I might pick up some different offset wheels then, who knows

[Mystikal]

The wheels I'm looking for are 15x7 ET20. I'm sure they'll fit.

On my 16x7 ET25's with 225/45/16 Eagle F1's I never rubbed. I'd wager 8mm further out wouldn't do much, especially with our suspensions.

[SchnellerVert]

15x7 et 20 is a tough wheel to come by. They were not widely sold.

[Mystikal]

Those aren't any type of ideal spec, it's just what the wheel I want came in.

I know you already have a set of them.

So will only those tires fit on euroweaves? I got 225/50/15 g-force sports on euroweaves coming my way, am i going to rub?

you shouldnt have any problems with that tire size. i ran it for awhile on euro weaves...

lowered car no spacers?

sweet

[Red325es]

I have ronal's w/ 225/50 es100's . fitaments pretty tight. ( strut and fender clearance.) w/ h&r cup kit

[madjurgen]

whats the offset on those?

[Mystikal]

15x7.5 ET25.

Just for reference, it's known that the Ronals were made with just a little too high of an offset. Some 225's such as S-03's simply will not mount without spacers, because they run wide.
