Ok on my crx i had 205/40/17 and i picked up a set if 15'' since then, i want to put on the azenis at 205/50/15? Is there a chance they will rub? I dont think the will cause i had 17'' and the didnt? Im looking to pick up tires in the next week..

Thanks
-Chris

 

i just dont want to have to roll my fenders?

the tenzo is 35mm offset

and it says that the 15'' maglite is 40mm offset you think it would rub?...

 

205/50R15 is a pretty fat tire

i run 195/45R15 and i wish it was slimmer.. (mine dont even come close to rubbing)

the 15's will have a smaller diameter than the 17's you used to run by 1.63%.

so they should fit

you might wana check into the offset tho

205/50/15 DD with no rub on different cars for 4yrs......you'll be fine with them

 

i hope they fit...

 

I have 205/50/15 lowered and have no rub issues. Really depends on that offset of the wheel

 

I dont think they will. Also depends on how low your car is.

 

You will be fine with the 35 offset..not sure about the 40.

 

about 40 off set..

also im running 195/60/15 Falkin 502 on the front, and i want to put the 205/50/15 Falkin 615

 

edit

 

Ok the 17'' is actually 42mm and the 15 is 40 so does this work with the 205's

 

hey what do you know, thats exactly what i said! haha

 

It really depends on how low the car is and what the camber is set to.

Bingo.

Depends on wheel width & offset, ride height, roll stiffness, and camber settings. Tire model and dimensions are only a couple of the many variables involved.

I've run 205/50-15 RT-215 Azenis on 15x7" +40mm wheels with no rubbing whatsoever on unmodified fenders, but I have a lot of roll stiffness (500lbs-in F/600lbs-in R with 22mm F/15mm R bars), a conservative ride height, and my suspension moves with the stock camber curve.

I've also run 225/45-15 Hankook RS2-Z212s on the same wheels with the same suspension settings, with only minimal rubbing of the fender liners (no metal bodywork was touched) at full steering lock.

 

It looks like i have about 1'' or inch and quarter of room from my side wall to this arm..

 

That really doesn't matter. I've never seen anyone with a clearance problem between the tire and knuckle or upper ball joint.

Like I said, you will not have any problems if you're using a 15x7" +40mm wheel with 205/50-15 Azenis, provided that you aren't running any adjustable control arms and have a reasonable ride height. Any rubbing will be minimal contact with the fender liners at full lock with some body roll.

 

ya i do have 15x7''

 

i have 205/50/15 kumhos, no camber kits, no rub issues and my car is right over the tire. when i slammed it about half way from tire to rim awhile back..it was rubbing a lil bit when U turning..lol i notice a whole bunch of icons of CS..hahha

 

Ya i know cs is the ****!

Ok i have some pics i know the rear wont rub i have alot of room with the 195/55/15 on there now.. Here is a pic



Now here is the front, with 195/60/15 i have a feeling they wont rub but.. Look at the pic with the 205/50/15 "512" right beside it..
