My car is pretty low, sitting on H&R race springs. Any pictures of the differences between the two? What are your thoughts?

 

40s are for drinking, not for civic's

 

205/45/16

 

agreed 205/45/16

 

45's so the pot holes don't own your *** in so cal

 

my car was pretty low on rsr race springs and i never had any issues with 205/45/16s

 

not to highjack this thread but 205/45/16 or 215/45/16 ?

 

either one will do since im sure the azenis are 215/45/16? i think either one is fine

 

psssss i had for 45s on my hatch and it was hitting all over the place got 40s problem solved so i say 40s

 

I've had both on my hatch, and the 45's looked much better IMO.

 

i say 205/40/16s

 

45

 

205/40/16 look like a rubberband on a rim

Get 205/45/16 not only will the ride be a little better, tires should be cheaper, better protection against potholes AND look better

You need some rubber between the tire and the rim, come on now!!!

 

205/45/16.......skinny tires are for 17-28" rims IM0.....little wheels with rubberbands look stupid and need to be lowered more or you have a nasty gap

That's the thing, my car is pretty low.

 

a 45 series tire will throw of your odometer or whatever its called.

I had some 205/45/16's on my 16 inch wheels and my mileage went down from 40 mpg freeway to 34 mpg freeway. I had the car worked on before this and thought they messed something up and that's why i had the bad gas mileage. I threw the steelies on and what do you know...the gas mileage went back up to 40 mpg freeway. Both mileage readings were VERY consitant with both the 16's and the stockers. The recommended tire size for a 16 inch wheel is a 40 series tire. At least this is true with a 96 civic hatch. The 45 series tire looks much better though...HAHAHAHAHA!

 

I am running 205/45/16

 

Anyone have pictures of their 205/45/16's?

 

45's.

i exchanged my 40's right after. looks weird on a 16" wheel.

even 17s look better on 45s. (on the dc5, etc)

 

pirelli p7000 - 205/45/16

thininking about doing 205/50/16 only because I can get a better deal

40's look like *** on 16" wheels... get the 45's!

 

Will 205/50/16 look as good as the 45's?
