s'ko Posted October 15, 2007 Share Posted October 15, 2007 I just found that Sumitomo makes a 13 inch tire that is 205/60/13 and 215/50/13. Is 215 too wide for the stock EA wheel? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carfreak85 Posted October 16, 2007 Share Posted October 16, 2007 Yeah. That 215 tire is 8+ inches wide and unless you found some old enkeis or some other wheel that was the same 5.5" width, you still would be hard pressed to fit them on there. You would need wheels about 6.5-7.5" wide wheels for those tire sizes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cd45 Posted October 16, 2007 Share Posted October 16, 2007 would the 205 fit? If so, those would be great on the Brat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerry DeMoss Posted October 16, 2007 Share Posted October 16, 2007 would the 205 fit? If so, those would be great on the Brat. Yes they will fit but may be a little squeeze. The 215 is huge for a little 13" rim! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cobcob Posted October 16, 2007 Share Posted October 16, 2007 The tires are available through Tire Rack... I'm a drooling mess!! http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires.jsp?tireMake=Sumitomo&tireModel=HTR+200&vehicleSearch=false&partnum=06HR3HTR200&fromCompare1=yes&place=0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phizinza Posted October 17, 2007 Share Posted October 17, 2007 My brother had 215/60R13's running on 5.5" wide fiat rims. How wide are the stock Subie rims again? 205/60R13's on 5" rims might be alright. But expect a little uneven tire wear anyhow. Well, thats over what the Subie will do to wear itself.

TheSubaruJunkie Posted October 17, 2007 Share Posted October 17, 2007 I ran the 205's on my RX, with the front end dropped and had no rubbing problems at all. Was lookin for a pic, but I dont think i have one with the tires mounted. They were great tires, and a great price. 205/50R13 i believe is what I ran, maybe it was the 60 series, its been so long. -Brian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
