Hi guys, I know this topic has been covered but Im quite lazy to find the information. I want to know if some 16x7 (wrapped in 205/50/16) will fit on a Honda CRX lowered 1.5-2" (F & R). Will they be able to fit? (if not I can also go 15" wrapped in 195(205)/55/15. Please tell me what is possible without having the wheels rub into the fender while turning. Your replies are appreciated.

Please no flaming.

Heh, Just really wanna know what profile is best to use. I heard 40 rides rough, 45 might rub. Might go with 15"s - I like to have meat on my tires and nice sidewalls. Post your nice tire combos also

 

I am pretty sure they will fit but they might rub a little. I got 15's with 195/50/15's and about a 1.75" drop at the most and it doesn't rub at all.

 

i got skunk2 coilover dropped nice (to the max almost) and i ogt 16X7 i would get 215 series because the 205 look kinda skinny compared to the rim and my 205 dont rub at all

Hella nice car bro

 

Sweet thanks alot guys. Yeah I think im gonna go with the 16's hehe. BTW, is that crushed and bent tubing to that muffler or how is it routed hehe?

 

I had 205.40s on my crx and they don't ride that bad....I never rubbed either even with a 38 offset

lowered on sportlines which claim a 1.8" drop...

 

That's pretty clean bro

 

I would think that 205/50-16s would rub due to the fact that they are too tall for the car. Unless you get the offset dead on, I think you will have rubbing issues up front.

 

205/45/r16 would be the correct size for that combo. most people use the 205/40/r16 to gain some extra clearence just incase, but i've used the 45 with no problems.

 

Mathematically 205/40R16 is the correct size to use.

 

Alright great. Thank you for the info.
