i have the stock itr wheels but the tires are too big and i wanted to know what size tires would be good



this is what it looks like right now but the tires always scrapes, i want to lower it a little more. like my friends but not as much

 

it's scrapping because it's too low. even lower would be even worse. i don't know how low they make the profile for 15" wheels. remember, the lower your car, the more fucked up it will look, be, handle, etc

 

HOT DAM DAT **** IS WAY TO LOW

Your tires are too big?

Looks to me like your car is slammed too low but to each his own.

Hows about listing what size tires you currently have first.

For stock wheels and or close to size I think that 195/50/15's are the smallest available but I could be wrong.

What size wheel/tire combo is on the car in the second pic?

I bet your header is crunched and both front and rear ends scraped all to Hell.

Forget about tires, get a set of airbags for your suspension, then just drop it like an old Citron SM.

 

lowrider type R.

 

Is this a joke?

No, I SERIOUSLY think he needs some "bags and switches"!

 

my wheels have the stock tires (gunmettal wheels), and i dont know what size wheels my friend has.

 

Your friend is running S2000 wheels and they are most likely 205/50/16's. Why do you want it so low anyway? If your streets are anything like Raleigh's (esp. Capital Blvd.) driving that thing would be extreamly uncomfortable.

Uhh, yep I think it is.

But, just for kicks.

What do you mean "your friend"?

Is his car one of those pictured above?

Guessing tire and wheels sizes on slammed whips is always my favorite pass time. Entertaining if nothing else.

 

Since your rocking the stock 15's I would go with a 205/50/15 Falken Azenis

 

my friends car is the one with the s2k wheels.

 

Going back to the original question - which is "I f**ked up my car's suspension and now I want to find tires that are way too small but will squeeze into the little space now available" - try 155/20-15.

 

It looks like crap that low, and it probably handles the same.

 

Is it just me, or does that second picture look like a photochop?

 

Kumho Ecsta comes in 195/45/15

Or Continental Contisport contact 2's.

But, why really. I've never seen someome slam a car that bad/low and intend to keep stock sized wheels. Most stunnaz go fo dem blingin dubs.

I dont think so, I saw this car (with the S2000 wheels) posted a few times in the appearance cosmetic forum.

 

The pic on the top doesn't look nearly as bad as the one below, but there are quite a few negative side effects to having your car that low Just raise the thing up a bit, get an alignment, and you'll be fine

 

that car looks SICK!

If you'd stop being a ricer, you'd stop scraping your tires.

You can do a few things.

a) get some 600+lb springs so your suspension won't compress as easily as it is now
b) raise your car
c) get some 195/50-15s and be on the ground, which i guess is what you want to do.


and whoever suggested 205/50-15 azenis, if you've ever seen those, you know this guy would have to raise his car a decent bit to run them as they're pretty damn wide. he'd probably cry about that, though.

you guys should come out and race sometime, are you into that sort of thing?
