stock rim tire upgrade - Honda Prelude Forum

92 SI Ludester · 10-06-2002, 05:21 PM

i am getting new tires with week and i need some help...i have the stock 15 inch 92 si rims on and i need to upgrade to better tires...i am looking for a tire that is great for the track but has a lot of grip for rain or snow....i think i have 225/45/15 on now...i am riding on koni yellows on the lowest birch with eibach sportlines so rubbing is a problem with a big tire...would i be able to fit a 225/50/15 on there? and which is the best tire to get:

Nitto NT-450
Yokohama Avid T4
Falken ZE-502

Don't get the 502's. if you want to go with falken get the 512's.

I don't know if you can get these in the dimensions you want, but Pirelli's P Zero Nero tires are very very good, deep threads in them, sticks to the road like glue, helps braking and all that. I love mine

i just got some 250/55/15`s, would 205/50/15`s handle better?

i thin the 250 will be better than the 205 due to the fact that the 250 is much wider and will have a lot more surface on the road than a 205 would....i wish i was able to fit a 250 on my ride but i am to low to fit a 215

Imported204 · 10-13-2002, 09:20 PM

haha i meant 205, my bad

92 SI Ludester · 10-13-2002, 11:01 PM

haha i was going to say how the hell did you fit those on the lude?

they had them there, b/c thats where I had gotten mine from... either way, the ones you have on now, are much better than your older tires...
