Noob fitment Question...

Will 225/45R18 Blizzak LM22 fit on my OEM wheels (style 197)?

The suggested OEM tire sizes are:

Front: 225/40-18
Rear: 255/35-18

Thanks!

While they would fit the OEM 8" and 8.5" wheels, I would be concerned about possible rubbing up front with a snow tire.

If you are at stock ride height you might... be ok, but rubbing can definitely still occur. I would recommend staying with oe spec.

If you have rolled fenders, then you shouldnt have a problem.
