any one running 200 series on stock p5 wheels?

And the stock wheels are 6.5 inches wide.

Uh, no. They're 6.

I run a 205/55/15 on my 15" LX wheels. Not a 16, but they work fine.

Yeah, I'm not sure what the Mazda engineers were doing the day they went with the P195/50R16 on a 16 x 6.

The only upside is that P215/45R17's on 17 x7 wheels (OE sizes from the MSP) are a relatively good fit for plus-sizing. Personally, I think this is the best tire/wheel size for any FWD or AWD car up to 300 hp....that's why I ride on 'em!

I have Yokohama AVS ES 100 205/45/16 on my stock rims and 205/45/16 Nitto 555 on my 16x7 5-zigen Fno1-r track edition rims.

You can almost see the 205/45/16's in this picture

These are a little better to see the tire size

Just remembered this one. This is when I just tried on the tires & rims to see if it woud fit.

Yeah... I was shaking my head on that bad advice also!

A bunch of people in the jeep world also have this issue. They run max pressure and wonder why they wear out the center tread section and have a hard freaking ride. With my 35's on my jeep i only ran 22 psi.

I'm running Falken ZE-512's 205/50/16 on stock rims. So far they're pretty good all around/all season tires. I'll go with something more agressive when I throw on the 18" BBS RG-R's.
