Default What size Azenis to go with?

I currently ordered 16x7 +25 offset 4x100 Volks and I have brand new Falken Azenis size 205-40-16's.......However, I ordered that side because since my offset is low, I didnt wanna deal with the issue of rubbing. But on the other hand, I feel like the sidewall 40, is too thin n may cause the wheel to bent etc. So I was thinking about selling my 205-40's n go with 215-45-16's instead.. but I dunno if my offset will allow me to go low since it may rub with the 215-45's....What tire size should I go with? any help is much appreciated BTW my fenders are already rolled and the wheels will be goin on a DC2.

205/45-16 and 215/45-16 are usually the best 16" sizes on an Integra. I don't know whether that offset will cause problems, though. (However, I'm not a big fan of doing a second thing wrong to try to compensate for doing something else wrong, like getting the wrong tire size to compensate for using the wrong wheel offset.)

If you want a little more clearance than 215/45-16 gives you, you can get 205/45-16, which will work equally well on an Integra and give you a bit more clearance. (Both sizes are within 1 percent of the stock size in diameter; 215/45 is just under 1 percent larger, and 205/45 is just under 1 percent smaller.)

Sticky tires (even stickier than the Azenis) available in 205/45-16 include the Bridgestone Potenza RE-11 and Toyo R1R.

Thanks for helping me out man ..... I sold my 205-40-16's las nite to a buddy and ordered 215-45's Azenis should get them in 2-3 days...... I've been looking at pictures of that specific size tire n it deff suits how I want it to look with a thicker sidewall...I'm not going for the slammed look either just low enough so that the tire doesn't rub with the fender
