17" 215/45 17 (SI only)
18" 225/40 18
19" 225/35 19
20" 225/30 20

Hope this helps a little

What I don't understand is, why is the 17" 215/45 17 for SI only? I own an LX and I was thinking about getting this size, but according to this list it says that it would not be recommended.

What gives?

Gaspar_06_Civic_EX · 10-13-2006, 01:43 PM

I run 225 45 17 on my EX sedan no problems.

Deleted - I figured it out. Originallity, here I come!

18 x 7.5 with 45 offset and 225/40-18 tires works. And that's with a 1.4" drop

ahslimjim · 10-17-2006, 01:55 PM

bout a 1.5 drop all around Tim?

**Tim** · 10-18-2006, 12:34 AM

Not sure if it's 1.5" exactly all around. It's the Eibach sportlines which are supposed to be 1.4" in the front and 1.3" or so in the rear.

Toxis · 10-18-2006, 12:36 AM

1.4 front and rear per Eibach which after a while, they'll sag to at least 1.7... if not more. My Eibachs for the integra were supposed to be 1.8 but sagged to 2.5+. It got pretty bad.

blaznhot_23 · 10-20-2006, 09:53 PM

anyone know if these two combos will work on a 06 si???

225/40/18 18x7.5 43mm offset???

225/40/18 18x8 38mm offset???

fdmaniac · 10-25-2006, 11:47 AM

if i want to roll on 19x8" and install big brake kit (345mm), anyone knows what offset can work?

SR20DE_MAN · 11-02-2006, 12:03 PM

Ah yes. I did something like this a while ago on the other forum that I visit.

http://www.b15sentra.net/forums/showthread.php?t=99430

Took a long while 'cause I had to figure out sizes for different Sentra cars, but now we direct everyone to that thread when they need to know something about wheels or tire sizes. (^_^ )

v.dot · 11-12-2006, 10:04 PM

Will the bolt pattern 5x100 fit on a 06' sedan?

thanks

v.dot · 11-12-2006, 10:24 PM

sorry, im a little confused here.. im lookin at some rims..the bolt patterns available are 5x100, 5x4.5.. will either of these fit? what the hell is 5x4.5?

thanks again

Myx · 11-13-2006, 01:49 AM

Hi guys... any inputs on whether 235/40/18s together with 18x7.5 45 offset wheels will have any rubbing issues, assuming the car is dropped 1.5"? Mine is an 06 sedan by the way.

Thanks!!

**Tim** · 11-13-2006, 03:02 AM

Yes, it will rub.

RODSCIVIC · 11-18-2006, 02:48 PM

I've got a little secret. When I had my Sedan on 17X8 5zigens I thought all wheels were +43. I was wrong. For some reason 5zigen sent one that was +35. The reason I found out was because I hit a big dip and noticed some scrapping in the front. So I will say that 17x8 +35 wil ft a Sedan lowered on the Pro Kit with some scrapping on dips. I never noticed anything during normal driving.

Good to know... Hopefully I'll be able to run 225's like you did on my 17x8 +33's with s-techs. I assumed I would have to stay with 215's.
