I have a 2002 accord ex sedan, and i recently bought the new GOLD XXR531's. the only problem is, i want to make sure what tire size i need so my wheels will fit. wheel size is 17x9.75+25, and im rocking FF TYPE 1 coilovers. i do know i need to roll and pull my fenders alot, and i did a little shaving for rear fenders as well. i have some pics for test fit i will post ASAP. i went to a few tire shops and they told me 235/40/17, and another shop told me 255/40/17 would be the best way to go, but im not sure. i just need some input please
I thought those wheels only come in 15's and 16's?
And shops around your area probably aren't aware of the whole "tire stretch" scene/trend/movement, whatever you want to call it. Fitting 255's will require too much effort but anything is possible if you're willing to put in the work, of course. Anything up to 9.5, I would throw on 215 but since they're wider, I would run 225/45. That would be your best option, IMO.
Post some pics though!
That's what I usually go by.

I only said 215 cause Jordan was running this same exact set-up.I thought those wheels only come in 15's and 16's?

FAILL!!! ON MY PART!! they are actually XXR 530'S!! Made a major typo! LOL! but yes, I was thinking 225/45 too. Also, yes, around where i live, the "stance" "tire stretch" scene is very scarce( ARKANSAS).i will defintinelty post some pics up soon though.
