Tire width for 7.5 inch wide rim?

[MrRocafella]

hey guys,

Currently i have Nankang 205/40/R17s on my civic (i hate them). The wheel itself is 7.5 inches wide. The rim pops out from the tyre and looks really pov.

I need a new set of tyres that fit the 7.5inch wide rim. What width should i get? 215s? 225s?

What brands can offer high kms at the cheapest price? and preferrably lower lower road noise...

225 since i am running 215 on my 7" 16s

whats the offset of the wheel?

on a civic if you run 215 and especially 225 tyres, expect it to rub

i had cheap firenzas and they got high mileage and were so far the quietest i've had. rubber was like plastic. stunk like crap too when you lit them up. swear the rubber was half plastic.

ek can fit a much much wider tire than an eg, keep that in mind guys

7.5" = 225 ideally if possible.
