Tire sizing for 13" rims on the Integra

[tmalzahn]

I am looking at purchasing 13 x 7.5 Lenso VPD wheels for the Integra. In looking at tire options, I am a bit stuck on the tire size.

The Hoosier A3S04's are 225/45 ZR13.

The ECSTA V710's are 215/50 WR13.

I don't have the mfr recommended fitment for wheel widths for the two tire options.

Can someone help me out on a good match for the 7.5" rim width?

Also, do I have to shave either one of them before using them?

Check the other threads below this one. Lots of good info.

Bottom line: Get the widest tire possible, and put it on a 8-9" rim. If you want something cheap, go to Diamond racing wheels. Steel, but pretty light weight and ~$60/wheel.

I don't suppose you have an email or phone number for them...I can't access their site.

Drivers who have done back-to-back testing are saying the 215mm V710's are faster than the 225mm A3S04's - even if they are visibly narrower. It remains to be seen whether this will be the case with the A3S05's. My personal opinion is that V710's are a better choice for the sites MAC currently has access to.

Don't be afraid to check out other places either like honda-tech.com has a thread for wheels and tires and sccaforums.com has a thread of for sale items. I managed to get a set of rota's 13x8 for 400 shipped from a guy on sccaforums.
