Hey guys, just wondering if anyone has pics of 205/50/15 on 15x8 and wouldn't mind sharing? I'm looking to run this setup for a 6th gen Civic hatch. What else would you guys recommend that wouldn't poke out the guards?

Thanks a lot!

 

I went to Google Images and typed in:
205/50/15 Civic 15x8... here are the results:

 

Lol that my car at the top! Depends on the tire size I would say, some tires are wider than others even though they are all 205 50 15.

Yeah man, it was the last of 10 photos I found but had to post it first, and post all photos! Ridiculously clean! Mad props, that's how i'd make a white hatch, sucks you beat me to the combo, down to the mirrors and lips!

 

Thanks for the replies

I'm actually thinking of running 6ULs (15x8 +36) on 205/50/15, would I be having clearance issues or any other problems? My car is currently lowered about an inch from stock height (not too keen on going any lower/slam or any of that)

 

Well then, luckily most of the pictures I found were 6UL's...
As you can see, most of them above were 6UL 15x8's with 250/50/15... and as the guy with the bomb *** hatch said, it depends on the tire as some are wider than others even though the measurements are the same.

If you're only an inch lowered, then you definitely should clear and have good turning, if not, you'd have to roll fenders and/or maybe small spacers. In the end, you won't know until you knock it.

 

You will be fine with 205 50 15 on 949 Racing 6UL wheels. I had the same setup before and i had more clearance than my TE37SLs due to the offset. No rubbing whatsoever even at the track!

 

Good looking car man!!!!! Do you have a build thread/car diary? Any more pics of your wheel setup? I can't really tell, but are you poking outside the guards?

Also, you didn't roll or flare your guards did you?

 

Nah No poke outside the guards. Rolled fenders front and rear. No pull I didn't want to mess up the body lines. I never made a build thread but I intend to make a post pics once I get a photoshoot done with some specs. Car has a k20a swap. Will post more pics when I find time. I've owned it for almost 10 years.....

Wheel setup both the 949 racing 6UL and TE37SL are:
Wheels: Volk Racing TE37SL/949 racing 6UL
Specs (i.e. size, width, offsets): 15x8, +25/15x8 +36
Tire specs: 205/50/15 Potenza RE-11
Suspension setup: Tein Flex
Camber specs: Skunk2 Pro+ front and rear 2.5F/3.0R
Jack Point Measurement (from ground): 4"

 

im running J-speed enkies on my ej there 15x8 +25 offset wrapped with 205/50/15's all wheel wells are rolled no pulling though. the rear will rub the side walls if lowered enough for the side wall and wheel well to meet. the front just rubs on hard turns. but if your only going for a small drop from stock height im sure it would be fine.honestly though nothing a small camber adjustment couldnt fix on my end, but your question you would be fine inside and out.

 

Thanks for the great info guys, I really appreciate your input!

Can I just ask if you guys don't mind, would I need spacers for this 6UL setup?

Cheers (again)!

 

reviving this thread:

@ EKtypeRhaTcH - i'm thinking of running 15x8 6ul's too, right now i'm using 205/50 but is it possible to run a stock uca on this wheel/tire set up? as much as possible i want to keep my uca stock and not to roll my fenders.

by the way here's how my car sits, do you think it will clear at this height?
