New Wheels and Tires. Help Needed

Hey guys, I just got my 2015 FR-S a few months ago and with winter coming I need to make some changes. It is still on stock wheels and tires and based off information on here I plan to use the stock wheels but replace the tires with winter tires. My current plan is to put 225 Blizzaks on the stock rims.

Come summer I wanted to buy larger rims for summer tires. What would you suggest for slightly larger rims and will 225 Blizzaks do well in Ohio winter weather?

For winter, put 205's on it instead of 225's.


For new summer wheels and tires, that is way too broad a topic for a simple answer to a question with no information. Browse the stickies in the wheel and tire section; they have a fitment chart and gallery of what a lot of other people have done so you can see what style and size of wheel you like.

What is the advantage of 205's versus 225's? Im new to the car scene so I am unaware of the simple facts.

1. Search for "winter tires" or "blizzak"
2. Search a couple posts under yours, the thread is called "Downsizing winter tires better?"
3. Search for wheels, you have months until summer to reSEARCH. 17x8 +35
