With Swift Springs, and 16x7 wheels, what tire is going to look better, the 205 50 16, or the 205 45 16. I know that both will fit but I'm trying to decide which is going to look better.

 

stick with 205 50 45 way too much gap on those springs

 

Hi Wafulz, and thanks! That's what I was thinking, but I haven't been able to find a good pic of that setup so I wasn't sure.

 

well on swifts its not much a drop so ur better off with the 205 50 and the 45 will throw ur speedO off but who cares lol but still lots of more wheel gap

 

yeah, gotta close the gap.

 

Depending on the offset of the wheels you may want to run the 45's to keep from rubbing even with the mild drop of the Swifts.

It's kind of hard to find wheels with a +53 ET like the stock wheels and +45 seems to be the borderline.I have no rubbing with 205/50 and Swifts but that's with stock 2012 Sport wheels.

I will probably go with the 45's if I get wheels in the +40 - +43 range just to be on the safe side.I do not want to mod the fender liner or roll/pull my fenders.

I can deal with the speedo error and loss of a few mpg also I'm A/T so the smaller diameter will help with acceleration
