215/35/18

doesnt sound too good. i think that's civic/integra sizing.

215/35/18 tire diam: 23.9inches

stock wheel/tire combo 225/55/16 is 25.7inches

these are sport tires and they handle honestly so much better than any other tires ive had-- corners and highway the quietest tires.
took it out on the HWY last night --150 km and felt just right. 35 series are grreat! and there is no way id be putting 55 series on the 18 inch rims~~~~ come on! what are you guys on!!!

i ve had a choice to get 40 s. but oh well this baby handles great.
and i will post some pictures soon once it stops raining here...
and they arwe skinner than stock by not alot -- and they would tuck under my fenders soo nicely cant wait for the springs

OMG...not 55 series tires dude....you need WIDER TIRES than that. 35 is an OK aspect ratio..you need to get bigger than 215!!! 215 is so skinny, skinnier than stock even which are 225! ...with a 35 ratio on an 18 inch rim, you will want at least a 255!! you're tires are too skinny thats the bottom line, and again your speedo will be off...but by less this ~7%.

the tire size you should have gotten with those rims is most likely 255/40/18 or 265/35/18 if you really wanted the 35 series.

How wide are your new rims?


edit: eh, forget it, we've all told you several times now that your tire choices are incorrect...i guess you cant MAKE people learn...It's your car, not mine

LEXuriouss

better gas mileage
and it doesnt look bad from the rear-- looks lke they are made for this car

i will post pictures soon -- you will see

and honestly speedo being off doesnt bother me at all--this is my fun ride so its not my daily driver
