I have a 2dr 98 civic ex, im lowering it in the next month with tokico hp's and tein stechs. I have 17's that i put on when the weather starts to get nice.

I was wondering what kind of tires I should get with the set up that I will be getting. Should i get the 205/40/17 or the 215/45/17? Whats the diffrence between the two!?

Are Kumho's good tires, because I see that i can get 4 ultra performance low profile tires for $200.

Thanks for the Help..

 

i've had kuhmos. no complaints, but $200 for four? thats not bad.

 

the difference is the width and the highth in mm

 

you will want 205/40/17 or u may get some rubbing ith the others!!

 

205/40/17 is what you want to go with for 17" rims , iv read many people having rubbing problems when going for anything bigger then 40... $200 tho, wow thats pretty cheap for 4 tires

 

^^^^^^+1!!!!

Only stick with 205/40/17

I have been there and done that with the 215/45/17 and you will rub. Good luck!!!

 

yea 215 will rub, and so will anything above 40ZR.

 

def go with the 205/40/17. i know someone with an accord with 215/45/17 and they wont even fit on my civic

 

Alright so ill definately go with the 205/40/17 , but has anyone used KUMHO tires because i wanted to get those kind.

 

did you read the entire thread?
