hahahaha yea, iv seen a civic with some 205/50/15 n they lookd pretty good, as long as the car was dropd by a couple it lookd very nice n fat like some stright performance tires,which is kinda the look that i want.

but whould 205 even fit these tires and the the 50 part,would that be too big looking for a stock high civic?

yeaa i aint kiddin anyone lol ima probably drop it an inch or 2, but the ride is soo bounce though, thats the 1 thing i dont like about droping a car

trustdestruction 05-18-2009 03:56 PM

why do you want 205?
195 is plenty

get 195/55/15

those are pretty sick rims :)

madjoker14 05-18-2009 06:13 PM

Thanks, get this, my girlfriend got it for me for Christmas lol but yea i like em,just havnt been able to save some money but i have some now

and why 195/55/15 and now 205 50 15 or 205 45 15

the 205-195 part what would be the difference ?? and i also want the tires to look good but i have no idea how to get an image of them on my car,

at the moment the car is stock hight but i want to drop it later on by half n inch to a full inch, what do you guys think??

trustdestruction 05-18-2009 06:16 PM

the first number is the width of the tire tread in millimeters. the second number is the sidewall height, as a percentage of the tire width.

for example, a 195/55/15 tire has 195mm tread width, and 55% of 195mm sidewall (107.25mm)


205mm wide tread with a 40 offset might possibly rub on the inner fender around tight corners when you lower the car.
195/55/15 won't rub at all.

thanks for the quick lesson, so with the 195 i would be rub free,good because when i bought the car they came with 18's (y i dont know lol) but half of my inner fender is gone,

but im leaning more towards 50-r15 and if u say that with a 195 i'll be rub free then i guess i got my tired picked out for huh lol thanks alot man
