Would someone be so kind to post pix of Yokohama ES 100 size 245/45/16 on the oem wheel. I'LL SETTLE FOR A COMMENT/DESCRIPTION OF THIS SETUP. DOES THE SIDEWALL OF THE TIRE FLUSH WITH THE FACE OF OEM WHEEL? OR DOES IT BULDGE OUT A BIT?

I'm running 25mm spacers and need to determine to the best of my ablility whether or not this set-up will rub the rear fender.

I'm particularly interested in the view from the rear-quarter of the car showing the sidewall, whether or not it is flush with the oem wheel lip.

For comparison, the stock S02 225/50/16 bulges out a bit from the lip.

I APPRECIATE ANY RESPONSE.

I'm just about to get a pair of those also. They've all told me that size is a perfect fit for the stock rear wheels.

Officer_down, would you post a pic of the setup when installed? A rear quarter shot would be helpful. Because of my rear spacers I'm afraid they might rub.

cyk, thanks a bunch. Is that 245/45/16 in the rear? Based on this angle I can't really tell if it the tire flushes with the rear wheel.
