    what is the width of the factory standard mags?

    I was just wondering if anyone knows if i can replace my 205/50/16 tyres with 215/50/16 tyres.

    Has anyone done this?

    The LEGNUM VR-4 type-S trim level gets specialty treatment with 225 / 50R16 tires on new-design 16-inch alloy road wheels, and flared wheel arches to accommodate the wide-tread tires.
    This information came from here

    I hope this helps....

    So the answer is yes to your question if you have standard mags, if you have other mags you can go up to what you want the 215/50/16 as thats what I have on my BBS mags but my mags are 16x6, so it all depends on your mag size...

    I think anything up INSERT INTO post VALUES (as in 16x6) would be fine as the wheel arches are flared as said above!
