Default Tire size help

Hi Guys,

I'm looking to pick up a set of NSX rims as follows:

wheels:

Front 16x7, 16.75 lbs./each, 55 offset, 70.1mm centerbore
Rear 17x8.5, 20.85 lbs./each, 60 offset, 64.1mm centerbore


The tires that come with them are:

Front size 215-45-ZR-16: Wheel size 16 inch
Rear size 245-40-ZR-17: Wheel size 17 inch

Someone suggested that I shouldn't use those tires, anyone tell me why?What size tires are optimal for this application?

Thanks,

Tom

I just suggested you don't use the fronts 215/45/16 sine they are an inch smaller than stock

Anyone else want to give some input?
