I also found an abundant supply of RE711 in 215/45/R16 as well... at.. wait for it... $200 per tyre!!! including fitting and balancing.

This time next week, you'll see a DC5 with RE711s... pretty much the last set in the entire country!
When I go and get the tyres, i'll ask for your size. What size do you need? I need more information.
There are many models of the Falken Azenis... Be specific. I don't think any of the street-tyre Azenis are better than the RE711Quote:

hey, i got stock dc2r wheels 195/55/15. Do the 205/50/15 fit onto my stock dc2r wheels?
Yup, that is the size that DC2R owners use on their car. RE711 don't come in 195/55R15.
Melv, dude! You didn't give me the size... I need width and profile as well! 17" is nothing to go by.Quote:

thanks howard!..appreciate it! :P
You guys are from ClubRSX so I know you know a lot. (I'm from there too). I just watned to clear a few things about the tyre numbers and wheel numbers. I'll take my tyres and wheels as example. 195/55/15 tyres and 15x6.5 wheels (I think).
195 is the tyre width. 15 is the rim diameter. 55 is the aspect ratio, but what is this exactly? I know it is a percentage of the tyre width, but what does it represent? Is this the thickness of the tread?
For the wheels, 15 is the diameter size, 6.5 is....? Is this the rim width? Please help me out here. Thanks guys.
195/55/15 - 15/6.5Quote:

The 6.5 is the wheel width and basically determines how wide a tyre (eg 195,205 etc) you can fit on it. This is in inches.
