will it work? will i have issues? my car is not dropped.

also what do you guys recommend for front and rear tires?
at the moment im using bridgestone re760 all around. and im looking into the nitto invo's.
but they dont have a 215/45/17

 

You'll be fine; for the rear run 255s

 

225/255 star specs or rs3's

 

agreed

 

so what you guys are saying is run a 225 in the front and 255 in the rear?

i cant run a 225 front and 245 rear?

225/255 star specs or rs3's ???? whats star spec? or rs3?

 

i love how everyone recommends the dunlop starspec.. its a race tire.. R compound.. thread wear is crap on the streets.

for a good street tire, i would recommend the hankook v12.. thats what im on now and they work fine, rain or shine.

 

and im also running 255/40/17 all around

 

the starspecs are not R compounds bro...they're an extreme performance summer tire...tread wear rating is 200 which isnt bad...i take it you dont have any experience with them, huh?

 

do u need "extreme performance" for street driving? LOL

 

i do...i expect a lot out of my car on the street

 

oh yeah, i forgot... everyone in a honda road races to the grocery store

 

I'm currently running hankooks V12, 225s in the front and 255s in the rear, and it's a great tire for it's price. Personally I wouldnt run rs3s on a daily however I do love them for auto-x, for a daily and auto-x I'd run dunlop star specs, good luck

 

my s2000 is stock. no drop no performance just a DD. i have 2005 ap2.
u guys should recomment the v12s over invo's?

i want just a DD tire.

 

r u retarded? star specs nor the rs3 is a r-compound! the car comes stock with extreme summer performance tires. why would u downgrade? i understand running snowies in the winter if u dd but y would u down grade on tires?

u consider this car a grocery getter?

this isnt a econ box civic.

u get what u pay for and if ur happy with running shitty tires good for u. i guess they serve well going to the grocery store.

 

u could run 225/245 but if ur going up a size in the front why not in the back? be consistent.

star specs are from dunlop super good tire for the price. rs3 are by hankook also an awesome tire, grip slightly better than the starspec with enough heat in them and are a tad cheaper in price but r not as good as the starspec in the wet.

 

no, but this isnt you normal honda and the expectations on this car are very high in my opinion...so yea, i expect a lot from it, but thanks for trying to be a douche

 

i race to the grocery store..

 

If you go with Star Specs just be aware they run wide, 225/45-17s will look slightly pinched on a 7" rim (which is what I'm running). The Dunlops are great tires, fantastic steady state grip, 215/45-17 would probably feel more nimble though.

 

I reccommend(the set-up I have currently) the v12s 225 for the front and 255 for the rear as just a DD tire, they are also going for a great price buy from tirerack.com

 

thanks. im look into that set.

so no one recommends the nitto invo's?

 

lol.. im just saying that the v12's would be good enough

 

i will be running 225/45/17s and 245s in back this winter. got winter tires cheap in this size.

 

if the car sees any kind of snow i suggest snow tires all seasons wont even hold up

 

ventus v12's right?

 

yes hankook ventus v12 evo
