Friend of mine has some 215 40 16 tires on 16s willing to sell to me

not modded my suspension... yet, but i'm betting its too wide for my car w/o rolling my fenders, or is it going to fit(with the rolling)?
or is it too wide w/o cutting my fenders up?

offset is +42(or +40 its one of the two)

Thanks!

Car ==97 civic cx hatch
stock 185 65 14, oem height is a little bit bigger(methinks, maths might be off)

 

I run 205 40 17's on my 93 if that helps estimate if they will fit or not

 

Come on man, TO BIG roll on some Red 16's

 

well i figure 205s will fit as most people recomend that for 17s, just i'm thinking i'll hafta roll em for these wheels if they will fit

 

You'll probably have to roll your fenders for sure. Even with 205/40/17s I had to roll my fenders. You can easily roll them with a baseball bat, I did it that way and it's fine, however most people recommend against it. Or you could get a fender rolling tool. Addiction2bass was interested in buying the tool and renting it to people for less money than the normal rental places.
