Today i ordered 16" wheels for my 00 ek civic plus yokohama c-drive tyres. I was going to make sure the tyres were low profile but forgot to ask.. i told the guy that the stock wheels are 14" and he ordered 205 size tyres - i presume they are 205/x/16 i'm just not sure what the x was he ordered. Is it fair to assume since the wheels are 2" bigger than stock, the tyres will have to be low profile anyway to keep the overall wheel width about the same? or not necessarily.. should i ring to confirm before the day? because i didn't mention anything about low profiles i'm afraid he may have gone towards a schmuck option...

Just ring him to make sure, and yeah they will be a lower profile to keep the overall width the same. Better to be safe then sorry!
