Default need help with getting the best tires....

I have a 93 Civic CX, i put the 4 disc GSR conversion, i'm using the 2001 EX rims (15"), and i also have koni yellows shocks and H&R race springs. My question is what size tires should i buy that wont make me rub, and will give me maximum performance. thanks

well H&R race drops around 2.75 front, and 2.5 back, so it is slammed.

max performance would be falken azenis - no dispute there. However they are actually wider than their advertised with, closer to 210mm. Do not go with 195/55, they are too tall for a civic(unless you're going snow tires). I would only consider 205/50 or 195/50. Azenis only come in 205/50 for 15" - no way to tell if they will rub unless u put them on =p I'm lowered 1.75in with them and they are fine.

Stick with 205/50/15. Tires are up to you, my favorite tire was the A520 and AVS Intermidates. Now the Aznis are top choice. Later Allen
