Subscribe
Whats up people, I just got myself a 99 civic EX with hub caps 
I need to get some rims... I found some that I like, there 17s, I have an idea of the tire size that it should be... To keep my speedo accurate should I be getting a 225/45/17??? Thanks for any help

No you should be getting a 205/40/17 to keep the speedo correct. the 225/45 would be larger and throw off the speedo

A 225 tire would rub a hella lot. Besides, 17" rims are more prone to being bent. Just be careful when you drive.
