Default tire fittment question

I searched but couldn't find the answer. Will a 205/50/15 tire fit on the ls mesh wheel? and will they have any fittment issues in the wheel well? They are on my 1997 integra gsr with a 1.2inch drop. thanks guys.

Okay, just so there's no confusion... The 1994-1998 Acura Integra LS came with 14" wheels (14x5.5), shown as #29 in the illustration below. The 1999-2001 Acura Integra LS came with 15" wheels (15x6), shown as #4 in that same illustration. I think either of these two wheels could be described as an LS mesh wheel.

If the LS mesh wheels you're talking about are the 15" wheels (#4), then yes, a 205/50-15 will fit, and you won't have any fitment issues in the wheel well. If they are the 14" wheels (#29), then no, you can't mount a 205/50-15 tire on them.

I apologize if you already know that they are 15" wheels and you can't fit a 15" tire on a 14" wheel, but I just want to make sure you know which wheel you're talking about.

Yes I know a 15 in tire would not fit on a 14 in wheel, but thank you for being thurough. My wheels are the #4. Thanks for the help. What is the official "Honda" name for these wheels. Everyone I know calls them "ls mesh".
