Is this a good tire size?

 

Anybody?

 

That would be the preferred size for a 16 inch wheel. So, yes.

 

Thanks.

 

that size is the closest you will get to matching the stock 195-55-15 on the gsr's and Si's. They aer expensive though. Cheaper and closest match to no vtec integras is 205-40-16. -=o)

 

What do you mean matching the stock? And is there a difference between tires on VTEC and non VTEC cars?

205/40/16 is going to be too short regardless of whether the car is VTEC or not. Your car came stock with a 195/55/15. 205/45/16 would be a little wider with a similar overall diameter.

 

205/45/16

i just ordered a set of es100's today in that size

 

Go with the 205/45/r16 to be the closest to stock. There is a program on team-integra.net to compare tire sizes. works real good.

Matching the stock diameter of the tire. This is done for gearing, and the accuracy of the speedo...

195/55/15 tire = 23.44" tall

replace with...

205/45/16 tire = 23.26" tall
advantages: closer to stock diameter, wider selection
or
205/40/16 tire = 22.46" tall
advantages: cheaper, lighter, shorter diamter for less rotating mass, shorter sidewall (which is stiffer for cornering, looks better or worse (opinion) but makes it easier to **** up your rims)...

therefore, the 205/45/16 would be best if matching the stock diameter was your goal, but as you can see, there is more to it than that...
