As the topic states I'm looking for the best tire setup for 16x8 ET20. I went with this set of wheels for hela flush look, and a different pair for traction at the stip. The car that these wheels will be mounted on is a 96 spec DC2. I understand I may have to run with camber (I'm praying that I dont) but the question is, will i have to stretch the tires to clear? I'd like to be able to have to run VERY little camber and use a G-Force tire...

I wont to go ahead and order the tires so they can be mounted and ballanced when the wheels get here.

Thanks

 

I think the Falken Azenis RT-615 215/45-16 would be a good choice?

 

There arent a lot of good street tires in that size. 215/45 are a little too tall, but if you dont mind that, its workable.

 

what tire size would best suit?

225/40/16
or
215/40/16

 

Neither.

On an Integra, two sizes are best: 205/45-16 and 215/45-16. However, you can't safely mount 205/45-16 on 16x8 wheels; if you get 16x8, you will have to get 215/45-16 tires. You're better off with 16x7 wheels, so you can get either size. There is a lot more selection in 205/45-16 than in 215/45-16, which is one more reason to do so.

You can do better than the g-Force tires, too...

 

you will be fine running a 205/45/16 on an 8" wheel no sweat. if you have stock fenders you may want to make sure you roll your fenders and get a great alignment

 

So claims an internet poster.

The tire manufacturers, however, all disagree, and specify 205/45-16 tires for use on a maximum of 7.5" wide wheels.

When in doubt, should one trust forum posters on the internet, or the engineers who designed the part?

 

if you've seen the latest trend then you'd know wassup.

but it depends. are you gonna be on the ground or are you going for the aggressive stance/look?
