i just traded my 01 GSR rims that were on my 94 civic hatch for some
16 inch kosie K-1's with 205 45 16 parada's

and i know that the kosie's r 7.5 inch wide,,and the best size tire to get with that width is 215 45 16's

but will i have any probs with that size??
the tires just look so weird ,,,,,,i have 205 45 16 tires on my RH cp 035's on my teg,,and at least those tires bulge out a lil from the lip of the rim
but u cant see any tire if u look straight down on the rim of the kosie's

i have GC's so i can adjust my height it i need too,

right now the rims r on there,,and there is about a 2 finger gap between the wheels and the fender,,i also just put the rims on tonight,,so if may change a lil after a couple days

if any of u have experience with 215 45 16 tires on a 92-95 hatch,,or even 2 door,,or 4 door,,please respond
thanks mike

 

215 is too wide...go w/ 205s for the best fit

 

I would do the 205's. That's what I had on my civic and I never had a problem.

 

Yes, 215/45's are way too big on 16's. If you run with those on a lowered civic you will rub ALL THE TIME

 

I have 205/35/18"s on my civic coupe, and they barely fit and every full moon they rub when i do a sharp turn. i really doubt 215 series would.

 

yes, 215's will rub when you hit bumps and stuff.

 

Oops... I didn't finish my sentence. I really doubt 215 series would <U>fit</U>.
