What the widest tire I should put on my 15x6.5 rims? My car is a 92 Civic DX hatch and it's dropped 2.3 inches. Right now I have some 195-50-15's on there, but would like some wider tires but only if they don't look weird on my wheels and don't rub.

None of those mention whether they're used on a 15x6.5 rim. I know people have put them on 15x7's, but mine are 15x6.5

 

195/50/15 is the only size for you. They don't make anything like 205/45 or 205/40. Plus, with the drop you got, 205/50/15 would rub. If you are looking for more grip, there are better tires at that size. Wider tires does not always equal better performance.

 

Will 205/50/15s rub with a stock suspension on a 99 Civic EX?

 

not at all

 

i run 205 45 16s with prokits and no rubbing here

 

i have 16x7 inch wheels with 215/40's on there, and they fit just fine, but i dont think i would go any bigger than that

 

205/50/15 fits perfect with my 2inch dropp. no rubbing. looks beautiful.

 

damm...so 205/50/15 would rub with a drop more then 2"? even with some negative camber? not much, but just a little, say like .5-1 degrees.
****...i was lookin the get the azeins for my Si's, but if they really do rub, then ill have to get some other tires, what would you recommend?
