Default Quick tire question...

Will a 205/50 tire fit on the 99-00 Si rim? My friend just ordered some but after looking at Falken's site, I'm having some doubts. The site says that a 6.5" wide wheel is required, and as far as I know, the 99-00 Si rim is 6" wide. Any help is appreciated!

it will be waay wider also, so i dont know about on a 6inch wide rim. it will look funny for sure but the height of the wall should be ok

Yeah, they'll work fine. I just had some Azenis mounted on my stock Si wheels. They'll stick out just a little since that tire in particular is a little bit wider than most 295's.
