Default New Wheels/Tires

Stock i20 owner with low profile Wanda 215/35-12's (18"). Want to smooth out the ride a bit by changing to 205/65-10 tires (20.5"), but not sure they will fit without modification, which I prefer not to do. Does anyone have experience with this larger tire size on an ICON? Thank you.

Those wheels say they have a different offset for the front and rear. I guess you won't be rotating them but it would probably help even out the track width difference.

I recently changed mine to the 205/65-10's and the fronts do rub when doing sharp turns. The ride difference is worth it, imo. I'm investigating adding spacers to resolve it, will post here if I do.

I know your cart isn't lifted too much, but thought this tire rub trick might help you a little. At least worth looking.

Thank you. Unable to download the individual tip you provided. Went to website and added to cart. Checkout would not process via my GPay account. Any suggestions? Thanks.

Thanks. I had significant interaction with a sales representative familiar with ICON before I purchased a set and he assured me the tires would fit. I hope his knowledge proves accurate when the wheels and tires arrive. If not, they'll go back. Not interested in a lift modification at this point. Fingers crossed!

Thanks BackNine29. How did the tires work out. If you have no rubbing on a non-lifted Icon then it might be the wheel setoff. I'll check the difference in those you posted vs the OEM Icon 10 in the ones I have.
