ok, i was wondering about putting 205/55/r16 yokaham avs es100's on my n/a z32 wheels, they are 16x7.5 just incase any one is wondering.

now i know its been done, and i know they are stretched, so i guess i really just want peoples opinion on it. i'm going to be some coilovers very soon, but im utilizing stock struts and tein stechs now, and i plan on throwing on spacer, yet i dont know how yet either. i've searched and foudn several different opinions and reccomendations. but not many pictures, i would love to hear testimony and get pictures of people who hae close to similar setups.
thanx in advance. dave

225/50-16...will look much better, and won't really decrease coilover clearance.

ES100 run true to size...not extra fat like Azenis Sport, or skinny like Kumho 712s...so 225 is just right for a 7.5" wheel.

so i wont be seeing bulging side walls?,...cuz i cant handle sloppiness, i hate it and wont tolerate. my friend has got some azenis of the 205 kind, and i;m gonna try those just to see how they are.
thanx

i ran 225 Azenis's on 7.5" wheels on my WRX and they were square on the wheels, no slop at all.
