its a drag radial, who cares what it looks like? Function over form! But I've seen this tire combo before, it doesn't look terrible...

haha when u drive on it daily and u dont want your competition to know ur on radials u want the tires to be just a slight bit discrete. hehe its the only advantage i can get over a RWD from dead stop. but now i need the radials just to run off a 20punch hehe thanks to 236ft/lbs oh yeah.

so u saw 225's on a stock 6.5" wide wheel?

Yup thx Viren for the great deal I got on the rubber, I have them on CRV rims 15x6 inch offset 50mm like stock ITR wheels. I don't know if the tire clears without work to the fender, then my car is lowered....perhaps it is possible without an lowered suspension. All my fenders are pulled about 1 inch





PS: yeah 225/50 in 6inch wide rim....looks much better than I thougth.

My car is dropped 2.5" and had no prblem clearing the 225's. Only on a hard bump in the road would they rub.

I have been using ADVAN A048 215/50-15 for more than a year with no problems so I am positive that the 225's will fit with no problems. I will not be monuting these tires for a while since they will only be used at the track. I use a 6.5" wheel with an offset of +48. I know that's a funky offset but it works.

Austrian, why did you put a USDM frontend on your car? Hehehehehehe I had to say it since people always say it to me!
