Umm, "16?

But seriously, how wide is the wheel? 5.5, 6J, 6.5...? If it's 6.5 then you can fit 205 width tire. If 7J width, then a 215 tire...

Re: Rota wheels...

Why so hesitant with the 16inch wheels silvery2kcivic? I have 17's now and I bubbled a tire in a couple months from pot holes cause the side walls are way too small. And the 16's will be better for racing.

I was just being an ass with my answer. You said "what size tire do I use on "16 wheels..." I said "umm, "16?" Ok, anyways...

I always say, the smaller the better. I run "15's on my Civic. 15x6.5 wheel size to be exact.

But when you ask what size tire, we gotta know how WIDE the wheel is, not it's diameter. That's irrelivant because of course a "16 wheel can only fit a "16 diameter tire. I wouldn't go any lower then a 45 size profile, but 50 would beest IMO. I think standard for say a 16x7J size wheel, is 215/45 16 size tire... But again, post up in here the width of the wheel you want to get.

Re: Rota wheels...

The Rotas I am looking at are 16x7. You said standard is 16x7J. What does the J stand for?

Re: Rota wheels...

you can put 205s on a 15x6, you just overinflate them slightly

205 is standard for a 6.5" wide, although you could probably put a 215 on it, because you can put 205s on a 6" wide
