whats the widest possible tire that will fit on a s14 SE rim. 205 isn't wide enough. My friend who just swapped his sr20 in can't get traction worth shit.

225/60/16 or 235/55/16 but thats an odd size. These are the 5 lug 16s right?

what kind of compound tire is he using? wider tires would make a difference but the tread pattern and compound will make more of a difference.

Cheato's... Oops.. I mean Nitto's 555R. That usually solves most of the problem.


but why would you want traction? :eekbunny:

werd might want to consider using different tires opposed to different widths
