Rota Slipstreams with 215 45 16 tires fit in our wells?
Im just wonderin ive seen rota wheels and they sit farther in then most tires do cause my 16' Advanti sit far out from what i think there about 1/8 cleareness from my wheel well Anyone?
I think it'll definately rub. Even people with a 205 sidewall sometimes run into rubbing problems.

what about 98 GSR's with 205/50/15
i have seen people here with those... have any of u guys upgraded from 195/50/15 fo 205?? i have yokohamas 195/50/15.. and have plenty of room between my fenders... i was wondering if 205 will make any rubbing...

i have heard you can fit 225s on the front with some fender massaging. put 205s on the rear since they won't rub (as long as you roll the fenders).

as long as the offeset is made for honda's u can run them
i had 215/45/16 on my EF before and they NEVER rubbed, now i also had 205.40.17 with offset for a ford and they rubbed like crazy!, now i have 205.50.15 with honda offset and they rub from time to time, i think the best thing to do is get a set of 225/45/13 and diamond racing wheels and problems are solved

my 205/50/R15 rubbed like a motherfather before I rolled my fenders. Nothin' a 2x4 and a BFH couldn't handle.

I would think 215 45's would be way too tall..even taller than 205 45's..i have 205 45 and they dont rub..never rolled fenders..i have enkei rpo2 16x7..guess offset is perfect...id go with 205 40's if i was ya...45's seem to tall
as most said, keep offset to a minimum of 42 and you will be fine.
215 toyos are almost an inch wider than 205's

why don't you buy some TIRES that will handle the power? i mean, get something that isn't from walmart.. how about some Falken Azenis or Nitto 555R tires? they may not last as long, but hey, atleast you'll get traction..
