Near new tyres.

Offset +42

Stud pattern and 5 x 114.3


so would these rims fit, with the tyre choose 225/35/19 for the front. and wat about the rear, can anyone really comfirm me 95% that the size i just showed will really fit with out rubbing or need to be rolled

19x9 paired with 275/30 is not good, they'll 1000% rub plus profile 30 is really thin, you wont survive pot holes

my suggestion is to get a pair of 225/35 or 235/35 for the rear

also if i may suggest, try avoiding rims like jestalts, try getting something more subtle, even if you still want chrome rims there are heapsssss of nicer chrome wheels than jestalts, just try browsing around

i've tried putting 265/35/18 on my accord euro and it rubbed.
does anyone know if changing the size of the wheels will affect the vsa?
i was speaking to one of the guys that work at honda and he said it'll ruin the suspension and make the vsa not work properly. he said some guy spent $5000 to redo all his suspension just so he could get bigger wheels for his car.. but i've seen so many people change their wheels and i havent heard of any problems yet.

It'll work. They said that we couldn't put 17" rims on it as it would mess with the VSA, then in 2005 they put 17" rims on the Lux.

275/30 tyres are 82.5mm thick. 225/35 tyres are 78.75mm thick. The tyres you suggested are THINNER.

That's what i have on my rims now :D the purpose is just to put wide rims without rubbing. I know that the tyres are thinner but that's the way to go if you wanna avoid the rubbing issues.

Yeah, but eskimo was saying not to go for 275/30 as it wouldn't survive potholes and suggested something thinner instead. :)

ah crap just found this one http://www.1010tires.com/TireSizeCal...?action=submit

yeap you're right 275/30 is slightly thicker, my bad my bad

but yeah i still recommend 225/35 or 235/35 on 19x9 to give you decent tyre stretch to get the wheels snuggle under the guards

i went to tyre for less at woodville road and i talk to da guy dere and he said 19x9 is too way too big and he reckomend 19x7.5

19x7.5 is gunna be hard to find

19x8 with 45 offset is perfect
225/35 tyres

you'll have no dramas at all

What tyre size do you guys recommend for 20"x8.5 chrome rims? would it be too bigg for the euro?

If your going to run 20' 8.5 you need to have 225/30/20 which is going to be illegal as the load limit is not enough. And your rim needs to be atleast a +45 or even a +42 offset

I have found the best combo is too run a 19 on a +45 offset, 235/35/19

225/30/20.. you might aswell put rubber bands around your rims. :)

thanks tknova, what does the 8.5 stand for? in 20'x 8.5
does anyone with 20's have any troubles with the police?
