searched but results only yielded 215/40/17 tires.

Any rubbing issues dropped about 1-1.5" would like to know b4 i go and spend the extra bucks on the wider setup?

im thinkin the same set up for my wheels

 

you mite have to roll the finder wall besides that it will fit.

 

you should be ok. I'm gonna be running 16x8 with +48 offset and ive been told i will not rub.

 

x8's nice lol. im getting a good deal on some x7.5's so i figured why not if i wont rub. tires are only 100 bux for fk-452's. what tires are you planning on running on urs?

 

im going to be swapping the tires off my stock wheels to put on the new wheels.

225/45/16 BfGoodrich KDW2

 

yeah you should be fine, mine were only 16x7, but still had plenty of room

some of the roadrace guys are running 16x8 with 245/45/16

 

I had 7.5", 225/40 with the same offset at one point and didn't have any issues. Had a two finger gap between the wheel well and tire.

 

i think im gunna order these things 2 morrow. tread width on the tires will be 8.1" compared to 7.2" i was gunna run. thanks

what wheels?

 

rota boost 16x7.5 in hyper black. i wish i could find a pic of the hyper black rims on a white car tho...

 

sometimes i wish i wouldnt have gotten polished. Soley because the wait is killing me. Polished is a special order and it takes 60-90 days. Got a call from Machiii early this month telling me that I would have them at the end of feb or early march. I'm hoping for the former

 

yeah i was gunna order polished or sports bronze slips, but i saw boosts avail in 16's now. i went to order 16x7 in gold but wait there on back order for 2 months. so they offered me 16x7.5 in hyper black for a good deal. the .9" more tread width pretty much has me sold plus the fact its only 450 shipped. I can always change the color later if i wanted, but i cant add .5" of rim lol.

 

 

It will not rub.

 

And that's 16x8, 225/45/16, lowered 2.25

 

awesome thats what i wanna hear. so ill still be ale to drop it a good bit. i just ordered them they should be here in a few days.

 

what if you get 225/45/16 tires is it going to fit in 16x7 rims??

 

check the tire. the falken fk452 225/45/16 fit 7-8 inch rims

hyper black boosts are for retards.

 

maybe they are well see when i get them mounted. my rims are wider then urs tho

 

I am running the s2000 rear wheels on my prelude with a 15mm offset to bring the wheel offset down to a 50mm, and with 225-50-16 tire i dont rub.

 

would 205/50/16 work well on 16x8?

How do u measure offset?

 

measure where the hub sits in relation to the center of the wheel.

205/50 isn't wide enough. You'd be stretching that tire a good bit to fit on 8"

Look at the picture above. That's a 225/45/16 on a 16x8 and it looks a bit stretched.
