Hi, I'm new to the forum and would like to know if anyone knows how big of a tire you can put on a 2015 500 Abarth with 16" wheels that have 16 MM spacers. Stock tires look too small in the wheel well openings. I know 205 45 R 16s will fit, but can you go bigger? Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks!
 
Welcome to the forum.

I'm assuming that you're doing this purely for looks, and therefore have no qualms about ruining the handling characteristics which FIAT spent millions of EUR developing?

Put in the standard size on the left, measure the gap between the top of the tyre and the bottom of the wheel arch, find a size which allows you to fill that gap and still accomodate the width of your wheels.

I never understand the 195/45R16" tire choice on 6.5Jx16" ET/offset 35 wheels.
I would choose 7Jx16" ET/offset 31 with at least 205/45R16" premium tires.
