Default Tire size question? Will these wheels/tires fit a GSR?

Hi, just as the title says, i want to know if the following will fit a 96 gsr. For reference the car is in no way "dumped", i have this crazy belief in function>form

Wheels: 16 X 7 , and the Cooper P205/60R16 tires?

Who says a car can't be functional while dumped?






Sorry I can't answer your question but I think that a 60 side wall is way to big. Something like 45 should be good. I'm sure nsxtacy will chime in and answer your question more in depth. Goodluck!

^ trump tight, Hobos

As for the tire...45 or 50 works well on a 16". I would think a 60 might look somewhat monster truck like.

...BTW, what's the offset?

Correct tire size for a 96 GSR is 205/45-16 or 215/45-16, which is in the FAQ if you had bothered to check.

wheels should fit no problem just make sure you get spacers. my gsr's previous owner had the car dropped almost 4 inches and had 18's on it, only occaionally it rub.

Nope. They'll rub on the wheel wells big time. They will also make your car accelerate slower, and throw off the accuracy of your speedometer and odometer. Stick with 205/45-16 or 215/45-16.
