Hey--- i have an eg hatch and i just got some rota circuit 8's---- 40mm offset--- i want to put the azenis 215/45r/16" on them but i am afraid they will run----- anyone running those tires on their eg????

 

I believe this was coverd a day or two ago and it was said that 215's will rub (I think even 205's rub a little bit from what I've read). Also, I think someone said that even the Azeni 205's are like 219's.

 

I run that set-up and it handles flawlessly...I say go for it

ok cool--- ya see though, this is why im so confused, because some say yes and some say no and im just afraid to get them, and then they dont fit right ya know

 

I have 215/40/16 and they dont rub at all, having 215 helps my car hook up.... I will never go bellow 215 again...

 

16x7 wheels w/ azenis 215's

 

I can agree with the 205's in a 15 rubbing. My friends hatch isnt even that low and rub really bad...hes looking into having the fenders rolled

Really not low just those tires are so wide.

Let me clairify:
I have Mugen MF10L's on 215/50/15 with a +45 offset. My car is dumped. My fenders are hacked. My car rubs like mad, but only in very tight turns(nothing you'll be doing on the street, only in a driveway or parking lot). Here's a pic:

 

i have 215/45/16 on my 4 dr and i love them. They don't rub at all.

 

noone here ever mentions that the Azenis 205 or 215 is generally wider that other companies 205 or 215s...I compared a set of my Advans to the azenis in the 205 series and they are about 3/4 of an inch wider
provided you have the right offset they shouldnt rub
if they do roll the fenders and most likely it will rub in the rear
