2004 car with 15's and16's. I've had toyo proxes on cars before and like them, lots of people on here seem to think they suit the 2 soooo, i thought i'd invest in a set seeing as the newly acquired ride has miss matched tyres on at the moment.
So according to the internet standard tyres should be,
Front 185/55 x 15
Rear 215/45 x 16
all good so far, however they also recommend that if fitting Toyo Proxies,
Front 195/50 x 15
Rear 225/40 x 16
So I found a good deal on Fronts 195/50 x 15 so I bought them.
BUT can't find 225/40 x 16's anywhere. So I went onto TOYO's own web site and it appears they don't actually make that size !!!! The closest they have are 215/40 R16 or 225/45 R16. Question is which of the two sizes would be best ?

I feel that 225 is really too fat for a stock 2. Most tend to stick with the 215. Always contentious!
205/40 also is lower than 215/45 thus a bit shorter gearing. Not a lot but any small bit helps in this too.

Toyo sizes are available, they fill the arches a bit better also
Try camskills / demon tweeks / eBay
Buy pfl wheels and fit standard 185 205 great fun
Stick with stock.
Couldn't agree more tbh. Pfl wheels with Toyo as stock size n I can't lose it lol. Little back end wobble if I push too much,,, on empty private roads of course but iv no complaints.
I have toyo,s on my FL
