Coachmen tire question

I'm getting ready to buy better tires before spring and I noticed my tires were 205 75 15. I was thinking they were 225's. Anyway, it looks like there is plenty of clearance for a 225 and I was wondering if anyone has went up in size?

If you have the rim width go for it.

I'm not sure on my rim width. I'm guessing it is either 5.5 or 6. The 225 tire is just a little wider than the 205 and according to the chart, should fit quite a few rim widths. I'm more worried about the diameter than anything but on visual inspection it looks like they would fit.

Not sure which unit you have but I know on my Catalina there would be more than enough room to upsize but I have 16's so I am sure each model is different

I've got a 273DBS TT. It looks like it had plenty of room but I hate to order a set and they not fit.

Talk to a tire dealer about the tire size (205's) your currently running and have him tell you if the wider 225 tire would fit your wheel/rim.
You could also call tire rack for an the same answer if you choose!
