do you think 235/40/17 tires will fit 17x7.5 +48?

 

have you experienced oversteer in a rear wheel drive car before?
have you experienced oversteer in this car yet?

if you have, imagine it being worse - and imagine it more of a snap oversteer than the usual oversteer.

how bad it is isn't something that any of us can answer for you - it's all a question of how you drive the car. personally, i wouldn't ever want to drive this car with that set-up in any sort of aggressive or spirited fashion and i sure as hell would never drive it set up like that with S02s in the rain.

 

Why do you want to make them all the same size?

 

Check the tire manufacturer wheel fitment guides. You should be able to find the largest tire that fits your rim size for the rear (and it will be larger than you might think). You may still lose some handling but it is worth looking. Be careful about increasing overall diameter though. I went 1/2" taller than stock on my Integra and I definitely noticed the acceleration loss.

Why were you so quick to change something when you had no idea of the ramifications of such a change?

Most people want to change something to ENHANCE the performance of the car. I can't understand why someone would change something that not only degrades the performance of the car but makes it downright DANGEROUS.

 

Alright guys,

thanks for all the replys...

i'm going to go buy the OZ superleggera in 17x8 and 17x7...I really hope those fit, i have a large headache now

 

When I was looking for rims, Sprewell Racing told me some guy in a black S2 got 4 18" RH M5s with the same size rims. He did it cuz he wanted to be able to rotate them. Is that why you want to get the same size rims?

 

I wanted these rims b/c I like how they look...

 

i have one more question...

the rim place said they would could put 215 in the front and 235 in the back.

do you think that would balance it out

with all rim sizes being equal?
