Default Rota Tires

I'm new, actually the reason i joined was because i found a thread that said "If your slammed post your pics" and i went through like 60 pages of it checking out all the JDM Style cars which made me want JDM styling really bad, so i'm selling my rims today and i'm gonna buy some Slipstreams in black with a chrome lip and i want 16"s so that i can slam my car like 4 inches, but i was wondering Do they make a 35 - 40 series tire for 16inch rims??

My car stock:


My Car now:




I know this is REALLY crappy photoshop, but i just threw this together in like 5 seconds, believe me i'm alot better and if you want a sample of my stuff just let me know, i just did this to get a basic idea of what i wanted:

Wow. It's not the cars fault Just get the lugs off and replace the studs (not expensive)

Don't slam your car 4". The ride will be horrible. On your car 205/40/16 or 205/45/16 are the best sizes to go with.

The problem is getting the lug nuts off, unfortunately i have to attend school which i HATE so i cant afford like anything right now, luckily my dad is gonna help me, but i dont know what i was thinking when i bought those gay *** locking lug nuts, i didn't want anyone to steal my rims but honestly those rims **** me off cause they are so plain and every ricer in the world puts those on. anyhow usually its like 1 nut is locking but on mine, ALL of them are locking lug nuts, and i've been told that i need an entirely new ball joint assembly if you bust a front stud, so i'm fu#$ed there, i just hope that i can use some penetrating oil to get those dam lug nuts off and replace them with OEM ones, and i'm hoping that if i can get the lug nuts off, that the lug nuts on the front right dont break too, cause then that'd be a whole mess of money.

well why do you give a **** what i care... no1 has to.. he said he wanted a jdm car.. he showes a pic of a riced out car.... he showed a befor and after shot... i personally like the befor shot... but what i thought was that he had it stock and wanted to go jdm.. so he added a body kit... hence the after shot.. but i guess.. he already had it riced and hopefully hes getting rid of it..

you guys couldnt figure out how to get a stripped lock or a seized lug? so you cut the wheel off? thats about the dumbest thing ive ever heard. did you even try to go to a tire shop? they do that atleast once aday.

All right well, maybe i'll clarify some stuff. I like the body kit so its staying, instead of going for huge wheels and a smaller drop i'm gonna go with smaller wheels and a bigger drop (thus the JDM styling) and like i said before I WASN'T GOING FOR JDM STYLE when i started the car but i'm changing some things to reflect JDM styling, but i like my kit so i'm keeping it and i wanna paint the roof , hood etc.. blah blah blah. Anyways, i'm taking the car to honda tomorrow and they are gonna fix everything up for me, i'll never buy ghetto locking lug nuts like that again, i bought a whole new set of OEM nuts from autozone and they were pretty expensive and tomorrow honda is gonna rip off the old ones and put on the new, if everything goes smoothly

oem nuts from autozone? are you aware oem means original equip manufacture? that means auto zone is not going to have the ball seat lug nuts that come stock on a honda. the oem lug nuts would not work with ur aftermarket wheels btw,

and your gonna take it to honda for them to break off your locks? why would you waste all that money to pay the ridiculous labor rate at honda to break off locks that any tire shop would be able to do for $20, if you are refering to the studs, than you would be able to go to most brake shops and have them do it for atleast half the cost

Not exactly.

Part of what you say is true. OEM usually means original equipment manufacturer, and is usually used to refer to the stock brand (although sometimes used to refer to stock specs). So OEM lug nuts would be Honda branded lug nuts that you can only get from your Honda/Acura dealer.

However, you can buy aftermarket lug nuts at your local Autozone with the ball-shaped seating area that you'll need for OEM wheels on Honda/Acura cars. They sell them as part number 99913, for $1.19 each. And they will work just fine.
