i got 40 series and its pretty slim. 45 series might give you a better ride, my 40 series makes the ride a little rough. Ill try to get pics up

for any 16inch wheel on a honda you would usually go with a 205 45r16, to keep the same overall wheel diameter. i know, where i live you would definetly want the extra bit of protection from pot holes and large cracks everywhere.

205/45/16 falken ziex





i went with the 45 because living in cali esp. the bay area we run into many pot holes... 40 would look a little funny too (at least in my opion) because they would be too thin of a tire.

205/45

I'm also running 205-45-16 es100's mounted on C8's!! If your car is slammed though, I would recommend a 205-40. I had to raise mine in the rear because of rubbing.

I've had both 40's and 45's and I definately don't recommend getting the 40's. 45 all the way!
