But yes, they will fit, or give me 5mins and they will certainly fit.
Sweet. I rolled the fronts as much as i could last time i was at summit point with a jack handle, hopefully that will be enough.

The fronts aren't the problem. You evidently haven't studied the rear of my car.

225-45-15's fit on 15x7's with no problem. If I change to a 17 I want to use the 234-40-17 to get that extra 3/4 inch of tire. That being said the 225's that are coming with the car will be plenty for a year or so..

Do you know anyone running a 245 tire on a DC chassis?

Do you guys think that I would be buying a car like this and not know what tires will and wont fit? Tire size and wheel offset are the key. You cant make generlizations about what will and will not fit if yor not speaking about both of the these 2 measurements.

rofl@ the know it alls. they always come out of wood work in these threads.

Good purchase! I'm glad you finally got her.

Isn't this the same hp range as the current one though? I thought you wanted a bit more power?

No silly. It's an H2 car so it should have some balls.

Michael doesn't a stock Type R motor put you into H2 in an integra? Are you gonna get your comp license?

I hope you aren't talking about me. I'm trying to ask questions to get information. I know tire size and offset are important, but I was hoping by asking questions I'd get more info on what would fit.

180-185whp is gonna be a good bit more than a stock LS.
