1993HondaCivic 03-01-2002, 12:23 PM i'm deciding whether to get 15 or 16in. i wont mind the 15 in but i dont want the tire to fat. anyone have a pic of a 15in wheel with maybe a 195/50 or 205/50 series tire. would the 205 tire be taller? fjt 03-01-2002, 12:27 PM 205/R15 wont be taller, they'll be wider. You cam find 205/50/R15 tires. Which rims are you going to get? SI's,GSR's? b16a2si 03-01-2002, 12:44 PM This is what it will look like with 15" wheels. http://home.columbus.rr.com/poweredbya4si/images/Si.3.jpg 1993HondaCivic 03-01-2002, 05:42 PM Originally posted by fjt 205/R15 wont be taller, they'll be wider.
