I'm trying to figure out what size tires to get for my 16X7.5 Kosei K1s. It's between a 215/55 or 225/50.

225-50's are the optimal size for that wheel width.

I have 225-50's on my stock 6.5"ers, and they bulge. The stock Probe GT wheels are 7.5" width, I believe, and they come with 225-50's, and the wheel/tire setup looks *perfect*. No bulge at all, and the wheels don't stick out past the tires, either (if you know what I mean).

225-50's are perfect. 215-55's would be too narrow.

Sorry, no pics. But I have 225/50/16ZR's on my 16 x 7.5 wheels, and they look cool. Enjoy.

If you look at my sig pic, you can compare 225 50 16s and 215 55 16s (front and rear, respectively). However, mine are on 6.5" rims.
