Anyone got picture 205/45/16 on stock rims?
Looking to buy a set of new tires for my stock rims but can't find anyone with picture running 205/45/16 on stock rims. I think the only picture I found someone running 205/50/16 but just want to see the sidewall different.

Hello,
I know its not a picture of real tires on a real fit, but here is a website that at least show you a pictorial comparison on sizes:
205/45-R16 vs 205/50-R16 Tire Comparison - Tire Size Calculator
Not sure how noticeable a 3% size difference is lol.
Hopefully someone comes up with a picture for you.
If anything you can always draw a scale model on paper based on the dimensions a calculator gives you.
Also the 3% difference would start messing with your speedo above a marginal level. Cruising down the freeway you will just need to be going 2mph faster to go the same speed.

Before the Kumho 205/50/R16 tires I have now I was running Continental DWS 195/50/R16's, which are about halfway between 205/50 and 205/45 in overall tire height. Unless you're lowered I wouldn't go any smaller than 205/50/R16 in height if you care about the way it will look. The 195/50/R16's I had looked small and a little goofy at stock height to me. You would have a heck of a gap with the even smaller diameter 205/45/R16's at stock ride height. They probably would improve acceleration and handling though at the expense of ride quality and the speedometer being off.
