I think the deal there is it's harder to find 215's than it is 225's. At least in my experience. Both are fine for your car though. Quote

If you want to know what really should be on the car look on the inside of the trunk lid or the spare tire cover. Quote
Andrew Posted June 20, 2007 Report Posted June 20, 2007 they arent always 100% correct so its best to do what Robby said. ive also always hated how they never list a 114.3mm bolt pattern to fit our cars, its less than a mm dammit!!! Quote
wickb55 Posted June 20, 2007 Author Report Posted June 20, 2007 well if 225's will fit the factory 16inch wheels then i have no prob. going a little wider. I just want to be sure there will be no problems with putting on 225's when my car now has 215's Quote
Cam'ron Posted June 20, 2007 Report Posted June 20, 2007 |.....| <--- thats about the difference in width from a 215 to a 225 no problem at all at least at my monitor resolution Quote
cutlassdude96 Posted June 21, 2007 Report Posted June 21, 2007 225 is what came on the 5 spokes rims Quote

3.1cutlass Posted July 4, 2007 Report Posted July 4, 2007 225 will work fine on 16 inch rims. I wouldn't go any wider mine are really close to the rear trailing arm. Quote
