i have 205-50/16s mounted on 16x7.5" wheels. i'm probably going to go up to 205-55/16s at the end of summer just to smooth out the ride

You really won't find many tire sizes in 215 unfortunately. As for 225 width, which gen Accord do you have?

Doh! I'm a retard.

Well 4doorH22 (Dave) runs 225 width, but he does have rubbing in the rear. However, I think it's his offset that's causing it. What offset are you running Dave?

You can oversize them a little, I fit +10 width on my wife's 14" steelies for her Corolla. Was a 175/70/14 stock, is now 185/65/14.

If you want a wider tire you should really get some wider rims, the stock steels are 14x5.5 I think. I wouldnt go wider than 195 on those, sorry
