NB....Nice to meet all of you.

Stock tire is 205 55 16.
Any probs with increasing the width to 215 ?

if you are going to 215 then you want 215-50-16... but it will be a little off of keeping it with spec.

I would look for a pair for 17" wheels like OEM Si wheels and you can run 215-45-17 which is the stock tire size and the correct tire size for your car also.

I run 215 55 16, no size difference, I noted my GPS speed and motor RPMs then made the switch. No rubbing, looks better IMO too with the slight bulge.
