try here Custom rims, wheel tire packages for your ride - RIMSnTIRES.com

or here Tire size calculator

Tire rack is a good resource to see what possible sizes are avaialble, looks like they list a Yoko S drive in the 225/35 17 Yokohama*S.drive

tire size calculator is awesome! very detailed. thanks for sharing.

i realized that, based on the calculator, i bought the wrong tire size to reduce wheel gap..

Typically more people are trying to find a tire thats close to the original tire diameter as opposed to fixing wheel gap lol.

What did you get?
