195/60 tires will be good on 15's thats what im running atm

burstaneurysm

60 series is the appropriate size for a 15.
Here's a 195/50/15 on stock suspension... I had to snap a pic of it since it looked so terrible at stock height.

lol man, nice visual. Thanks alot, I'll go with 60's.

How much trouble would 245/40/18's be with coilovers? lol... I have a really cheap set of Falken Azenis I can get so wondering if anyones gone this wide on our cars

burstaneurysm

That's pretty wide... the sidewall is too big for an 18 though. I think you'd have a hard time fitting that.

SHoward

Correction... 235/40/18's... still big I know, they are off of a subaru

That' pretty effing big. Just do it right and get appropriately sized tires.

SHoward

Tires for 18's cost a TON so im trying to see if these will fit as they are Falken Azenis with only about 1k miles on them for dirt cheap (talking less than 200 for 4) from a friend of mine who has too many tires in his garage

burstaneurysm

Okay, then do it, but be prepared for it to not fit. How big is the wheel?

EAmon

40 series on a 18" wheel is pretty big i'd go smaller
I'm running a 40 series on my 17" wheels

SHoward

Well I measured the tires without the wheel on them and its going to come close... I think its possible... but REALLY close... thank god for coilovers so I can adjust accordingly lol

burstaneurysm

How wide is the wheel?

SHoward

8" wide wheel... im sure ill have to roll the fenders already..

Wheels are 18x8 +32

To Jizzy Pickle I am on 1955515s on front and 1856015 stock size on back it does look a little weird but to get the better trac i do that anywho i did run 19555 on all and it was fine it didnt through my speed meter of to much 1-3mphs but it did hurt fuel econ but if you dont care than go for it it lowered mine by a little 1/3in but if you go down to 195/50/15 will lower by full 1 inch

evosky

ok looking for a new set of wheels/tires right now...

i'm checking out a 15x8 or 15x9 +36 offset. will the 15x9's rub at all with a completely stock setup ? and what tire size would people recommend ?

BlueJDMBoxV2

17x8.5 with 25mm offset, will it rub?

EAmon

you should be fine, in the rear, front might rub a lil (if i did my math correctly)

BlueJDMBoxV2

17x8.5 0 offset wit 10mm spacer in the rear, will i need flairs in the back?
