Will 215/ 70 R15 rub if I put them on my 93 240SX? If so what are my limits on tire sizes? Thanks Tony ---

they will rub if you have stock suspension. 205/55’s are about the limit. 205-60’s will rub ---

I ran them for the longest time on my car when it was stock and lowered. It’s the stock tire size 😛 \*\*Edit: And 70 series sidewalls are huge. They’ll throw your speedo out of whack and well, they’ll look retarded. B-Wurm 😃 ---

I know i tried some used tires back in the day and they were taller than stock by just a little and they rubbed. They must have been 205-65 or simmilar. ---

Not to threadjack or anything but would a 205/55R16 fit? I’m thinking of s14 wheels on an s13 with the factory tire size . . . ---
