Size to replace stock 16's ???

LDB · 08-27-2007, 09:52 AM

What size is the stock sedan wheel? I believe it should be a 5x114.3 pattern but don't know what width or offset. Also, what width(s) will work with the stock tires but then allow switching to a 215/50-16 at replacement? tia

i believe the stock EX sedan rim is 16x6.5 with 205/55 series tires +42offset..as far as how wide, not too sure how much you can go, probably 16x7, but with smaller tires, it's gonna look small...i have 17s with 45 series tires and it takes up the same space as the stocks, but more rim, less tire, looks better...alot peeps on here run 17s/18s, some 19s and a few even bigger...

Ppl usually go 215/45/17 or 225/40/17 or 215/40/18

I'm just trying to decide between going 16 now or waiting till my original tires are used up in 40-50k miles to go 17 then. If I wait I'll go 215/45-17 but I may get 16's now and swap my tires over.
