tires size - 225/50/18
 
Noob here... Will the tires size 225/50/18 fit on the car without any problems? "Some of you might ask, why are you putting xx/50/xx tires on your car?". Its a long story... But will it? if so, what wheel size should I look for? And btw, id rather not use spacers and hubs and keep the camber as it is... Thanks in advance... Cheers!?!!

Try this website, and see for yourself what you are doing to the wheel diameter with those tires.

For reference, stock is 215/45/17 7"et48

Those tires are way too tall IMO, I wouldn't be using them on a FRS/BRZ. You're slowing the car down, raising it up, increasing weight, and really screwing up your speedo - not sure what the benefits are.

my guess is that he has them sitting there from a grand prix or something.

on a side note, i liked how 225's filled my fenders a little more than than the 215s
