    I have 165-55-14 on Miata wheels on mine. My fenders have the inside lip rolled from using larger tires. No clearance issues at all.

        I don't think the 165's would need the fenders rolled depending on your wheels.

          I have 165/55-14s on 6"-wide wheels; no need for fender rolling in the rear. I can't think of any size tire we would use that needs fender work on the front.

              I had rubbing issues with 185/60/14's on the rear before. Those were the reason the lip was rolled.

                If your wheel offset is above a 32mm, and your wheels are no more than 6" wide, you will not rub the stock fenders with 165/55/14 tires. These tires fit the Festiva very well, and are actually a tidbit smaller than the 155/80-12 tires.
