Max tyre width for an Aurion ATX?

[Kenpo]

Hey guys, I want to purchase a set of WORK EMOTION XT7 rims for my 2008 Aurion ATX.

I'm just curious to know whether 18x9.5 rims would be too wide?

[conroe]

I would say so.

8" is plenty. Even if it'll fit, I would not even consider 8.5" let alone 9.5" .

I'd disagree... I've seen one before in an Aurion, and they fit.

Well that doesn't help :/

I did say this, But it's only at the rear. Have no clue for the front wheels.. 1 more thing, you'll need to roll your fender.

With 9.5, all you need to worry is the legality and the insurance matters..

I have got 20x8.5" on mine sx6 without any issues at all fitting and insurance wise.

So they do fit :)

As your post asks for MAX tyre width....at a guess would be 255mm or you might squeeze some 265mm rubber in there before problems start.

245mm is what the TRD's run stock and it works well,feels planted.

What's the max width rubber I could fit on the stock (16") Wheel width?

I know my stocks are 16/60/215 at the moment, could I sqeeze say a 16/60,55?/225 on, without changing my stock 16" Alloys? (I have Prodigy 07)

According to these specs at CarBudy, the 16" stock alloys are 6.5" wide.

Cool little Tyre Size Calculator I found here, according to which I could go 225 or 235, so apparently I can.. hmm.. What's possible concerns? Wouldn't the rubber be buldging over the sides abit? Isn't this a safety concern, i.e. cornering and the tire could pop off! or something? lol

If no real concern, and I can go 225 or 235, can anyone say whether it can be done on the AT-X or Prodigy (pretty sure they have same suspension setup?) without having to roll anything or change any suspension

Thanks

can I put 20" on my prodigy? say 1stkills old black and chrome rims.

someone here in perth has 22" rims and their mint but i wouldn't recommend it lol, unsure of width..

19" on left 22" on Right (also see slight camber on rear no camber on front)

22" Rims from LHS View

lol. thanks for the quick reply. it's not the looks or if it can fit etc I'm worried about. What I'm worried about is the legality of it, roadworthyness and insurance

[METAL13]

in WA legality states you can go 3 rim sizes up from standard factory release....

My ATX comes with 16" so i can go maximum 19" again not sure if there is limit to width but 8 to 8.5 should be plenty without being to noticeable or cause you any issues with scrubbing!

If a copper pulls you over first things they check is, Rego, Licence, Tyres, Windscreen (cracks), seat belts and do the RBT most of the time now too!

Searched the forums and couldn't find an answer to this yet.

So what's the consensus about Max Tyre Width on the atx/prodigy gsv40r (1st gen)?

I've been running Michellin Pilot Sport 3 16/55/225 for the past year, been great.

However, recently done a rotate at Jax and they reckon 2 of my shocks (front LHS and rear RHS) are failing. Bit of oil seeping out top (hardly noticeable, dust covering it mostly). Unrelated?

No signs of rubbing I can see with the 225's but wondering if anyone else had any experiences.

Cheers
