Default Tire Sizes

In a previous post I talked about suspension and some problems I have with rubbing. Which brought me to this question. What size tires you all running on 17 inches wheels? 205 45's or 205 40's? I am running 45's and get occasional tire rub.

if u rub with 45's i would say get 40's. have u rolled ur fenders yet? and what do u have 17's on? i hope its an s2k and u posted this in the wrong section. but the only way u wont have that much of a problem with rubbing is by running the smaller tire and rolling the fenders. the offset off the wheels could also be what is causing you to rub a lil.

205/40 is the appropriate size. What year is your car?

What car do you own?

205/40-17 would be the appropriate size for '96-'00 Civics, but still larger than the stock diameter for '92-'95 Civics.

To 17" the best option can be 205-40

Here in Spain, we go to 205-40-16" XD
