Cobalt SS 17 inch rims (stock)
 

do 225/50R17's fit on the stock 17 inch rims?

the speedo diff will prob be slower than actual speed

but will they be ok? safe at least?

thanks.

the stock 205/50/17 is 25.1" overall diam.
a 225/50/17 is 25.9" overall diam.

yea they'll fit, 225 is the widest (so i've been told) you can fit on the stock 17's
However depending on your suspension setup you may have rubbing issues with 225/50's. i cant say for sure because i cant test it, perhaps someone else can or has already and can chime in.

I personally was going to go with 225/45's seeing as they were much closer in overall diameter to the 205/50's. But if you dont mind the speedo being off some, then go for it.

Try this cool tool I just found...Tire Size Calculator - tire & wheel plus sizing

yes, which I posted....in the correct forum. pls note..

moved!

thanks, yeah it'll be the stock suspension i'm not sure if that will rub though, i'd imagine it won't. thanks again!

sorry i posted in this forum, i made a new post in the correct one, i only realized after there was a tire one, noob sorry

thanks !

lol ok

i have 225/45 and they fit great. sidewall is even with the rim face, and it looks great, i think it handles better.

as said 225/50's would sit higher
