I got accord 03 lx with origional rims and oe size tires(205/60/15). What is the biggest tires i can put on OE rims that will not require me to recalibrate everything. I am looking for better handling

TIA

 

are you talking how wide you can go or how tall you can go, because going taller is going to allow more side wall flex, and end up giving you a sloppy but nicer ride, you wanna go low profile, less flex in the twistys and a little less enjoyable ride

 

You can go wider, I'm not sure how much wider but the thing you want to stay around is the overall diameter of the tire. You tire is about 24.7" so you want to stay within +/- .5" So whatever tire you are looking at, just calculate the overall diameter and verify it's close and that the width of the tire will fit the rim without rubbing anything on the car while your driving and you'll be fine.

 

thanks for everyone reply, i want to go wider

 

here is a poplur tire sizer site. use it for the diameter touringaccord mentioned.

well, first you need to know how wide the stock rim is. The rim size is usually stamped somewhere on the rim.

 

Thanks for reply, guess need to stop by mechanic or call to see if he knows what my rims size are.
