225/55 rim ok for slicks with a 99 GST?

[truwarrior]

Looking at picking up some 225/55 rims for the GST and getting a set of slicks. Right now I think I just have 205/55. Will this be a good rim size for a slick and still avoid any fitment issues? Thanks.

This tire fitment guide should help you out.

225/55 isn't a wheel size, it's a tire size.

Generally speaking, you wanted the smallest and lightest wheel you can fit over your calipers. 2gfwd's, I believe, can fit most 14's and 15's.

Ah, I thought so, must have been tired, but usually from the factory does the tire width usually fit a specific rim width?

Isn't is called plusing when you put a larger tire on a smaller rim?
