Default 215-45-16 rt-615

i have a 5th gen with neuspeed sport springs and the stock sh/jdm wheels. my question is will these tires work and would it look goofy to have them? i know my speedo and odometer will be thrown off but i really want a set of the rt-615s and they just don't offer that many sizes for 16s. if this wouldn't work out what tire would be comparable as far as grip goes and offered in the 205-50-16 stock size? O yea, the tires need to be less than $100 per tire.

thanks,
brett

i have 225/45's on the stock 16's which is the slightest bit shorter than the stock 205/50's. One thing i have noticed with them tho, is that the wheels aren't wide enough to take full advantage of them. an 8" diameter wheel would really nice.

you can get away with 215s on the stock wheels. lower profile tires won't look bad at all, and the lower gearing will be wonderful
