    15x7 et 25 BBS RS 001 tire size

    What tire size should I use for DDing these wheels? Going to buy a set tomorrow so I can safely drive these down to the picnic.

      I think you mean 205/55/15 or 225/50/15, which are the same diameter as stock.

            225/50/15 is what I ran on mine until I sold them.

              I chose 205/50/15...I'd much prefer 225's, but would have had to special order them, and I needed tires in time for the picnic. Now I've got a bunch of finder gap that I will be taking care of with my adjustable ride height C/Os and a skid plate :)

                I've got a set of 205/50/15 Falken Azenis sitting in the garage waiting for a set of 15x7 as well. Slightly smaller than stock but good for low end gearing IMO.

                  I have 205/55-15s RE750s on 15x7 ET24, on M3 springs. It's excellent for my 'spirited' driving needs. I can post pics if you like.

                    225/50 if you want to drive it like you stole it....

                    OR if you're a gangster and want to piss people off, run a 195/45/15 and SLAMMM your car. But seriously, don't do that. NO one wants to see that.
