Hi, 1st Gen xB Widest Tire Question

[Mike-O]

Hi Everyone,

New member here, post numero uno.

I have a question for you guys. I have a 2005 xB, and I'm wondering what the widest/tallest tire one can install on a 17 inch rim without rubbing issues?

Is 225/45/R17 too wide/tall?

225 is too wide. tried and true fitments here for 17"
