Im thinking of installing 245/45/17 tires on the rear of my s2000 with stock ap2v1 rims (reason being I couldnt find stock tire sizes where I live with same brand tires),
I've eiback pro kit springs on order, im just wondering, if I install the springs and the car have 245/45/17 tires on the back, will it rub?

And what do you guys think, I've two options regarding installing tires:
1- install dunlop sportmaxx tt
Front 215/45/17
Rear 245/45/17

2- or install dunlop sportmaxx tt 215/45/17 on the front
And install michlin PS3 245/40/17 on the rear

What would be a better setup? If you were me what would you go with?

Thanks

 

I am assuming you will be doing the pro kits on stock shocks. You wont rub at all, I have the pro kits on stock shocks as well. I have 255 on my volk wheels and its a 9 inch rim. Your doing it on a 8.5 inch wheels. My offset is 63 with those volks.

I wouldn't mix the tires up at all. Why not get Dunlop Direzza ZII and call it a day?

Here is a pictures of my car to give you an idea:

Yes I will be going eibach pro with stock shocks
I would love to go with ZII's but where I live we have a very limited tire options.

 

You can't just order the tires from tire rack? Just sucks you have limited tire options in your area.

 

Don't order the taller sidewall. See if they have a 255/40/17.

 

Any more ideas?

 

Like what? Can you not find a 255/40/17 or order the 245/40/17? You don't want to mess with the height of the tire.

 

Trust me I would love to order 40 sidewall, but i live overseas and we have a very limited tire choices.

Im wondering, will it rub if I went with 45 sidewall and lowered the car on eibach pro kit springs? Anyone done it?
