im still running the factory wheels on my 5th gen prelude and was wondering if anyone runs or has run a 225-50/16. in comparison with the factory 205-55 they are the same height, just wider. any information is appreciated.

The stock size tire for 5th gen is 205/50/16, not 205/55/16. Therefore, 225/50/16 will be too tall, and your speedo will be off. 225/45/16 would be closer to the stock size, but I don't know if anyone has put these on the stock wheels. I'm one who is running on 225/45/16 on Racing Hart CP-035 rims, and I have no problem with them.

 

well hell. seems i am mistaken. i really thought my factory tires were 205-55. i currently have 215-45 and couldnt remember exactly what was factory. ah well, thanks for the input.

anyone running a 225-45 on stock wheels.
