I remember reading on here a while back about the particular tire sizes people were running on 99-00 Si rims w/out any rubbing issues.

Time has come for me to replace my tires, but now I cant find the thread about what sizes people were running. I know stock size is 195/55/15 but I vaguely remember people saying 205/50/15? or something similar to that.

Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

 

205/50-15 is right.
It'll rub on tight turn and depending on how low you are.

That's what I'm running on pro-kits. No rubbing except occasionally at full lock.

 

how low are u? with these wheels?

 

I'm lowered about 1.8" (s-tech) right now.

Only rub when the steering wheel is almost fully turned.
But not as bad as back then cause i've worn the lining down now.

 

205/50/15's on Neuspeed race springs (2.5") w/ stock shocks..........

no rubbing at all

actually, when i first dropped it with these rims/tires, the front fender lining rubbed a little, but i just tucked it up further and everythings cool now

just want to let you know if you are considering falken azenis sports their 205/50/15 actually measure 219 across

 

Yeah just about any 205 should be fine. The azenis do measure about 15mm wider then their "advertised" rating on all of their tires.

I never had any problems on my old 99si with azenis on stock si wheels as well as 6.5" group n's unless you were transitioning VERY quickly (i.e. auto-x) and the only reason for that is lack of dampening and spring rates. Had slight rubbing on the inner fender liner.

 

exact same setup as mine and i dont seem to rub any <TABLE WIDTH="90%" CELLSPACING=0 CELLPADDING=0 ALIGN=CENTER><TR><TD>Quote, originally posted by crx_91si &raquo;</TD></TR><TR><TD CLASS="quote">
