[QUOTE="lwarrior1016, post: 1336488, member: 20210"] I can tell you for sure, you can go much wider than 225 without rubbing. I was running 275/40-17 all the way around mine and I never had a rubbing issue. What is making you want to go to a narrower rim? I think you should just get a different set of tires for you current wheels. Also, as far as blowing the tire off the rim, I guess you are more at risk doing that now because the tires are stretched out to seat the bead. I think you will be ok if you don't drive like an idiot and understand your hazard areas (curbs, potholes, ect.). [/QUOTE]
