TIRERACK Closeout on SSR's questions...
Looking at the closeouts on the SSR wheels. Wondering if the SSR's come in 16x7? 6.5 is not going to cut it.
|
why wouldn't 6.5 inch wide rim cut it?

i guess he wants to run something bigger then a 205 series tire? |
come on.
on my brother's crown vic, he had 15x6.5 rims. on the front, he had 205-50-15. on the back, he had 295-50-15. it IS possible to mount wide, or skinny, tires on rims. |
man 295? talking about crazy rim protection hahaha
|
lol. i'll look for pix. this was a few years ago

I am running a 205 tire on my 6.5 wide rim. Its the same amount of contact path. Doubt you will go wider than a 205 tire.
|
I want to run a 215.45.16. I didnt look at what was for sale from the previous gen civic. Thought about that today...
Ill get back to this one... |
people has to stop using donut tyres. sidewall flex is no good.
|
215 is too wide, you will rub like crazy, especially if lowered.
|
how about good suspension components, and a good bit of camber if you "need" that kind of traction
|
Swift springs, sway bars, and bushings before wheels and tires.
