: Will these tires fit???

I drive a 2003 Element with stock rims on it still, I want to leave them on but get wheels with a larger diameter. I was never a fan of how large the wheel well is and I can't afford new rims right now. Does anyone know if these will fit P225/75R16??

I appreciate any feedback I can get..
thanks

225-75-16 is as tall as you can get w/o rubbing. Some with aggressive tread may rub slightly in certain situations.

Yeah, agreed, they will fit. They only thing I look at on a 7" wide rim, 225 are a little wide/taller and give a little buldged look and when in heavy/quick manuvering, you might see a slight handling decrease, it all depends on the way the manufacturer designs the tire, thats a good tire, you should be o.k. :)

Agreed, they will fit, I had that size on my stock rims when I replaced the CRAP OEM's
