Would someone be able to tell me what is the largest tire I can put on a stock suspension with a 15.5 wheel.

Currently running 185x65x15 and want to go a little more aggressive without tires rubbing on the fenders.

Thanks for all your reply’s. Think I will go with 195 x 65 as I want to minimize any potential for tire contact of the inner fenders or suspension. Any suggestions on a specific tire ?

I went with all season tires because of where I live, and chose Firehawk AS tires in 195x65. I haven't driven on them yet so this isn't an endorsement but I chose them based on overall great reviews including a couple members here who have and like them on their teeners. All I can say from personal experience is that they look darn spiffy on my car and make it easy to push the car in an out of the garage (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
