Use this, put your current setup in then the new setup and you'll see the difference

I actually kinda make sense of that Ratty... I just need to decide what size tyres to use

Alex, you got some pics of those rims blad?

Also your speedo is probably lying to you a bit anyway... I find my speedo agrees almost exactly with my GPS with 17" rims and 215/45 tyres, which means it'll be reading faster than it would have done stock.

The Prelude camber caster etc etc is all tuned to work with a 4" side wall (205/50 or 225/45 or 245/40)
The tyrewall is part of the suspension.
A lower profile tyre will increase response but will loose grip and stability in the corner.
215/45 or 235/40 is a good compromise.

205/40 or 205/45 is just plane skinny.

When i got my Lude it had 185/70/r14's on it so thats a 129.5 mm sidewall

What width are the type s lude wheels?

A1ex · Post by **A1ex** » Fri Mar 15, 2013 10:35 am

I think they're 7" but could be 6 1/2"

Type S wheels are 6.5".
Toad. Yours is a 2.0i but it will be be based on a 4" side wall.
