the wheels have a +42 offset on 225/40/18 pirelli pzero tires.

so i bought some 16" rims and 225/50r16 toyo tires a month ago. So each time i make a u turn it rubs a little on the inside of the time. So if im making a left u-turn then only the front left tire will rub. The same goes for the right front tire when i making a right u-turn.





This is where it rubs at on both sides.


What do you guys think, like my rims???

your tire is to big mate... you should have profile 45 with that wide tire like 225 is at 16inch rim...
