I could get a set of ADVANs in 205/50/16 for decent price, I know that I should be looking at the 45's but I can't find them fast enough. Any of you fellow R owners are running that size tire? Are you dropped or not? I have a slight drop. THNX!

 

Oh yea, pics by any chance??

 

Its no R but I have ADVANs 205/50/16's. Perfect size I think..

Tires and wheels look good with the c-west side and rear.

 

i dont believe thats the C-west rear.

205/50/15 has nothing to do with 205/50/16

205/50/16 is significantly increasing the overall diamater of the wheel/tire combo, not only will your speedometer be off but your acceleration and braking will be affected.

Stick with 205/45/16 if you choose to run a 16" wheel.

 

205 50 16 is way too big for civic/integras that run on 195 55 15's stock, the only reason homeboys red civic up there can run them perfectly is becaus his car comes with like 195 65 15 stock

 

but i do belive there was a guy in japan with a 4dr itr that had 205 50 16 advans mounted on and he said they were good to go, but i dont think he was lowerd at all or had theperfect offset to run those tires

 

if your cars riding on stock height it should be ok, but if its lowered, it'll rub. go with 45
