205/50/15's on GSR rims?????
Does anybody have pix of GSR rims with 205/50/15's? Does it look too wide on GSR's? The reason I'm asking is because someone offered to sell me a set of 95 GSR's with 205/50/15's for $300 but he doesn't have pix. He lives about 1 1/2 hours away and i dont want to make the drive if it looks stupid with 205's. TIA!!

I have 205-50/15 tires on my 2000 GSR blades, and it looks good and drives fine (does not rub, and my DA is dumped - tires slightly tucked). I've seen Azenis 15" tires on the same GSR wheel and for some reason, it looks like it bubbles out more, like a balloon and makes the wheel look smaller than it really is (like a 14" rim). Just my opinion.

Re: (XxSOHCDriVerxX)
the 205's are great, I have 205/50/15 on my gsr blades Kumho 712(daily driving)they bubble out a little bit more, but I think due to the nature of the not so stiff sidewall. Allthough a definite improvment over the Michelins.
Here are my 205/50/15 Bridgestone Potenza on my 15x6.5"

No rubbing here. Only when i fully turn the wheel.
