Re: Euro members, wheel question (Integra Rated R)
225's in the front. 225's in the rear will require 5mm spacer from what I hear from the autoX-ers.
[edit] is that for the 17" ATR rims? what's the width and offset on that?[/edit]

Re: Euro members, wheel question (Integra Rated R)
Are you kidding? Stock Enkei (Euro+USDM) is only 6" wide. I won't go further than 205.... Especially S03s, because the 205s are 213 mm wide in real.....
Go for the 205/50R15 or 195/50R15 (a lot cheaper) S-03. You won't be disappointed!!!
BTW Time to update your sig.

Re: Euro members, wheel question (Integra Rated R)
I think it would be kinda awkward mounting anything wider than a 205/50 on the stock rims. I would think the tires would bubble out and would not be optimal performance wise. 225/50 would fit in the front, and teh rear with a spacer, but I bet it would rub at full turn.
205/50 is the way to go

Re: Euro members, wheel question (Integra Rated R)
you asked for the widest tire size you can put on the stock enkei´s.
so I initially thought it would be for a track. my bad. For daily driving, go w/ 205/50/15's. Falken Azenis are advertized as 205/50/15's, but it seems they are more like 215/50/15's or so... and they fit stock 6" rims.
Tire rec = S-03, P-zero, Azenis, A032R, Re730, etc, etc, etc... just depends on what your budget is.

P-zero=Pirelli
A032R=Advan
RE730=Bridgestone
for daily driving, I'd recommend and of the above minus the Advan's, as they are an R compound tire and designed for track use (although there are people that use them for daily driving)
I'd also recommend the Falken Azenis for a good compromise w/ performance and tread wear...205-50-15

Re: Euro members, wheel question (Integra Rated R)
you should still be allrite with 215/50, we even put 215 RE540S semislick on our stock wheels. But putting 215 tyres with a really really stiff tyre wall such as RE540S is not an easy job though.
