215/45 or 215/40??

[aznfunkyflip]

those wheels that i got from you looked too freakin small on my sister's accord. lol.

so i replaced them with 45 series and it looks better now. according to the tire shop, the recomended series for 17s are actually 50.

yea, def a 45 sidewall.

Of the 2 choices and depending on what you will be doing with the car, you may want to go 215/45 or 225/40.

Since you are getting coils, I would say going with a 40-series tire is fine too, since you can slam the car to minimize any type of gap.

lol yeah those tires were pretty small.. I had a 2inch drop on those and they had more gap than my stock 15" alloys! lol

^^ well i might want it to sit really flush, so that is the reason for running the spacer.
