Rubbing issues with tires and wheels
Sorry this is not a Honda. I bought some oem wheels from a '95 Lexus LS400 and put on some 225/60r16 tires on there. I thought I can put it on my '97 Lexus ES300, but it was a no go. I'm having some rubbing issues where the tires meet the shocks. My car's original 15" tires were 205/65r15. Here are some pics.
ES300 wheels with 205/65r15:

LS400 wheels with 225/60r16:

Can I still use these wheels with lower profile tires? Thanks.

Stock 205/65-15 were 25.5" in diameter
New 225/60-16 are 26.6" in diameter
You really bought the wrong sized tires.
And please, this is honda-tech, for questions related to Hondas.
