Hi Dezoris,

I own a 1999 Civic EX Coupe. I plan to lower my car (1.25'') with Goldline springs and install Tokico HP shocks as well. Recently, I purchased a set of 15'' 2003 Honda EX aluminum wheels. I am planning to put 205/50/15 Kumho Ecsta 711 or 712 on them. If I am not mistaken the pic of your honda seems to reveal that you are running 15''s on yours. Do you see any potential problems with this setup? i know I could just wrap 195/55/15 on these wheels, but I want to go wider!

What's your opinion on that? I would very much appreciate your answer.

205 is perfect if,

Your offset is greater than 42mm and your camber is set optimally.
Yes 205 will offer better grip if aligned right
