    Tires for Slipstreams

    I was looking at getting Nokian H tires. I have used Nokian before on other cars and i like them. I want the tires on 16x8 Slipstreams.

    Looking at the wheel/tire calculator it looks like 205/50/16 would work. I would like to know if i can go wider with out rolling fenders and stuff.

    Thanks for the help, bit of a tire noob.

    The tire noob should use the search function. There are COUNTLESS threads on tire sizing.

            Alright, since you admitted fault...

            205/50/16 will fit fine without rolling. 215/45/16 should just barely squeeze by too, but you may need a slight rear roll depending on suspension setup.

                Go with 225/45 tires and roll the fenders. It's an 8" wide rim!
