my car on 205/45's



I think they ride good. 50's would give a lot of sidewall flex and throw your speedo off as well. 45's are what is recommended for the +1 wheel size

nice look man...that helps a LOT

I think you'll be better off with the 45's...the 50's would be too big.

The beefier the tire, the more chance of rub, unless you compensate for it. A simple fender roll or camber adjustment can be that compensation. I prefer beefy tires myself (205/50/16). I have yet to get them, but that is my absolute choice. 45 is very nice, just not enough tire for me.

Here's a Civic on Dunlop Direzza ZII, 205/50/16

Currently on 205/55/16 and on stock springs. Only time they rub is when you turn the steering wheel all the way, it'll rub in the inner wheel well. Either way I don't find myself doing it often and will most likely change them out for some 205/50/16. Looking for some springs but not sure which to get. Looking for a 1.5"-2" inch drop. Any suggestions anyone? Not looking to camber it or slam the car. Just something that'll make it look slick.
