Revy did tell me that he fit a 245 tire on a 7.5 in wide wheel (i think thats the stock width). So with a 9 in wheel, a 245 won't be to much of a stretch. I have read on CRSX that a guy ran 275 up front and 245 in the rear for auto x. We have simular cars but i think that the wheel well is bigger on the rsx. So if measured right, it could fit.

I had a tire rub on the suspension. When i first put my Flex's on, they were wayyyyyyyyy to low and the 235/40/17 on a 8 in wheel with a +45 off set rubbed the spring on the coilover. When i raised it, the rubbing went away.
