tractor pole Posted August 30, 2011 Share Posted August 30, 2011 so I have decided to do a 5 lug swap on my 91 Loyale wagon. I have seen the tire size thread for lifted cars, I am wondering how big I can go without lifting, not planning on doing any wheeling just winter driving and commuting. I really like the six spoke wheels that were on early 2000's imprezas like this want to run those for summer/ not snowing tires and 15" steelies with studded snow tires when it snows. was thinking that 205/50-16 would be a tight but ok fit. Tire Size Comparison Wheel Specification Sidewall Radius Diameter Stock: 185/70-13 5.1in 11.6in 23.2in Studded: 205/60-15 4.8in 12.3in 24.7in Six Spoke: 205/50-16 4.0in 12.0in 24.1in any thoughts?

92_rugby_subie Posted August 30, 2011 Share Posted August 30, 2011 I had 0 problems running 195/60/15s and I believe Spencer (OBK25XT) is running 205/55/16 on his Loyale which maybe lowered... Heres his thread: I saw it on page 5 when asked about his tires... http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/showthread.php?t=114061 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
