But on another note, all the sheetmetal you would want to trim is not visible unless the wheel is off and you look inside the fender. Just remember to prime and seal any metal after you grind places down. On one website a guy tried putting on 195/50/15 tires on 6.5J/15 +38 rims and had the same rubbing problems. He ended up with 185/55/15 tires and had no problems and didn't have to modify the inner fender area. But he ended up changing to 195/45/16 tires on 7.5J/16 +38 rims



Comparison of stock 175/65/14 next to 195/45/15 tires. If you are going to stay with 15" wheels I would get the 185/55/15 tires.

Thanks Dojo. When are you coming here so we can polish your Filipino(Tagalog was categorized as a dialect a few years back).

7.5J/16 +38 rims with no rubbing?

Was thinking of getting 7/16 +42 rims with 205/40/16 or 195/45/16 tires.

What do you guys think?
