I drive a 1998 Chevy Cavalier Z24 Coupe. I just bought some 17 inch rims for it because the old ones were beaten up, and the finish was gone. I have called multiple tire stores but they offer no confident opinions (Discount tire, the Chevy dealership etc). So my tire size options are
215/45-17
215/50-17
225/45-17
I am looking for high mileage tires, NOT PERFORMANCE tires. But I was thinking of going with the 215/50's for that reason. I thought maybe the 225's would be too big and I would get a lot of wheel rub when I hit a bump and such. You obviously will get more mileage out of bigger tires... So if someone can confirm I won't get much tire rub with the 225's I would appreciate it =)
