Default wheel questions...

Hey guys sorry for the n00b wheel questions but...

I'm looking to buy some 15" Rota Slips for my 95 civic coupe. I'm not sure which bolt pattern to get, 15x6.5 or 15x7?

Also, if i went with 195/55-15 tires, do you think it would rub if I was running H&R Sport Springs?

TIA,
Brandon

Bolt patter is the lug spacing. You need 4x100. What you're thinking of is wheel size. 15" (diameter) 6.5/7" wide. I don't know exactly which size you should get. As far as rubbing, what is the drop on the H&R springs?

Optionimports.com says H&R Sports are 1.75 in the front and about 1.6 in the rear.

Thanks for the info also

EDIT: So does anybody have any idea on which wheel size would be better, 15x6.5 or 15x7? Also, which tires would be better for me, 195/50-15 or 195/55-15?

Thanks,
Brandon

You need 4x100 stated above. That's the bolt pattern. 15x6.5 and 15x7 are the rim size's. I prefer 15x6.5 butr that's just me.

check sig

*edit* Don't go with a 55 serie's tire. They're huge. get a 50 series.

Thanks for your help guys

I've decided to go with 15x6.5 inch rims and 195/50/15 tires.
