16" tire size?
hey i just picked up a set of 16" rims but need to know what size tires i would need. ive search and found alot of 205/45/16 but most of them were civic sizing (same as integras?). any pictures of how it looks on integras? i dont want tires that are too low pro that it looks like im on rims only. i want something meaty like my last set of tires from my 15" rims. (205/50/15) what tire size for 16" rims that look good and look meaty on integras that fit?
btw, i have 215/45/16 in my garage from my work equips. will these fit?
thanks in advance.

Depending on how low your car is i would either get 205/40/16 or 205/45/16. It seems like the 205/45/16 would be your best choice.
I could show you a pic of my car with 205/40/16 but none of the pics i have show the tires that well to make a good judgement. But i could post a pic if you still want me to.

Yup, those are the Oem optional sideskirts (there is a difference from the oem R, non R, and optional sideskirts) and the oem rear valences.
Edit - just in case someone doesn't believe me (cause there is always one person that doesn't) when i state the differences in the side skirts so here are some links that have pictures comparing the differences: https://honda-tech.com/zero...age=2 https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=1469581 and https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=891073

^^^^^^^

You can also use 215/45-16, if you're getting a tire (like the supersticky Falken Azenis RT-615) which comes in that size.

Yes.
Tires that are 215/45/16 seems to be about twice the price of tires that are 205/45/16. For example, the cheapest tire in 215/45/16 on tirerack.com is the Direzza DZ101 @ 108$. For 20$ more, you could get Goodyear F1 GS-D3 (205/45/16, 128$) ,or Kumho Ecsta SPT (205/45/16, $70).
I personally would recommend getting the SPT I just picked up a set of these and they are excellent for the price. Although, if you are after a supersticky tire like the RT615, then you will need to get 215/45/16 as that tire is only available in 205/40/16, 215/45/16, and 225/50/16.
Azenis RT-615 in 215/45/16
Kumho Ecsta SPT 205/45/16
The 215/45/16s you have in your garage

They are, indeed.
If you get them, don't forget to mail in for the $40 cash rebate from Kumho.

the tires i have from my work equips are Direzza DZ101. i might just use this since they have like 95% thread left but i still have to get another pair of tires since the other 2 tires on my work equips are 245/45/16.
lol. i like how the 205/45 is looking on djinn's car tho. how would the 215/45s look? would they be noticably weird looking?

Yup. Like the Azenis, the Direzza is only available in 215/45, not 205/45.

The Direzza is a good tire, similar to the Kumho SPT. In most sizes, the SPT is slightly less expensive. But if I already had two Direzzas, I would get two more to match.
