First of all it's the wrong size for a Civic. Your car will feel sluggish and your odometer will be off.

For 16" you need 204/45x16" tires.

Unless you run really stiff springs and near stock ride height, the tire will rub against the seam at the top of the inside front fender. You really can't do much about it since it is part of the unibody.

I think a 215/45/16 would be a better option. Maybe that's just me.

P.S. Why the hell would you decide to run R Compound's and then switch back to **** tires?

what the hell are you talking about? the wheels dont have tires on them yet...im looking for some good tires and i just wanted to know what kind of issues im gonna have with a larger sidewall..but i guess its not gonna be worth the time..so im gonna have to run 205/45/16's instead of the 205/55/16's</TD></TR></TABLE>

What the hell am I talking about??? What the hell are you talking about??? Did you read the title of your post. "with 205,55 Ao32R's" In case your are unaware those are "R" compound tires. They are not even in the same LEAGUE as some ES100's. Hence why I made my original comment. Get with the program man.

Mr Milano, it appears we have a label ***** on our hands.

And the original poster should also be interested in what offset his wheels are.
