What tire size is this?

[DE31]

Can the owner of this protege5 or somebody tell me what size these tires are? and if possible what tire is this?

BTW to whoever owns this i love the look of your car...

 

[theprophetevan]

not the owner but those are 205/55-16 falken azenis sport iirc

 

[Lord_Zath]

yeah they're definitely larger than stock tire diameter. Wonder how they fit? Anyone know who owns that ride?

 

[RedPro5808]

That's 1fastMp5's ride. I am planning to get 205/55/16's on my stocks also.

 

[Mr. Win]

there is some rubbing on the strut tower iirc

 

[anarchistchiken]

Wow that's nice. The car is just like Matthews old one except faster and red and without an asshole as an owner.

I'm probably getting the 205/55 setup for my stocker too. Maybe 205/50. Would it make much of a different on the track?

 

[DE31]

how much do you think powdercoating all the wheels would cost? if its alot then i might be better to get a nice set of rims.

 

[khaosman]

My friend was looking into it, and it was somewhere around $70 a wheel... not so cheap, heh.

 

[DE31]

$280 total... maybe new wheels might be better....then i can still use my stockers as winter wheels....

That was my plan, too. Though keep in mind that new rims plus tires = $1,000 or more if you want decent stuff...

 

[DE31]

well with the option of painting the original wheels with 205/55-16s it would cost 700+ what i was thinking of was getting new 16s and wrapping my old tires then when i get the money buy new 205/55s later. same with powedercoating, powdercoat first then new tires. thats of course after i get money and all this is planning for the future.

[Lord_Zath]

that could work. Why new 16's and not 17's?

 

[DE31]

i like the beef.

[apexlater]

yeah, those look like the Falken Azenis tires in 16".

[shameless plug] I have a set of 17x7 with tires I'll sell ya for a steal, with basically brand new tires on them. [plug/]

 

[DE31]

naw its ok. they arent really my style.

FYI...I'm pretty sure the owner rolled the fenders...as in, the 205/55/16 won't fit on the stock wheels w/o rolling.
