Install them and see. I am sure there is a fitment guide on most of the Honda websites as far as what the widest tire/wheel combo can be installed with what suspension without rubbing.
Do you have a stock suspension? |

| The offset is the only thing that matters if he's running a stock suspension. Now that it's dropped, time to look into fender rolling. |

Depends on tire brand as well...i have some 15x7 with 205/50/15 Falken Azenis and they rubbed a tiny bit....ran the same size in the past with Toyo's and didnt rub at all. Certain brands run a little wider than normal. And like Hosmer stated, def depends on offset aswell. _________________ - Black Japan - |

wrong...these dont rub:
you get the right suspension, dont slam it like an asshole, and as long as the offset isn't too high and your not rubbing on the inside you can run anything you want |

Those look like cut fenders. If I remember correctly, the VR4s have a longer fender but I could be wrong. That is a mean looking car, but I was assuming he'd do the normal Honda drop which is 2 inches...
Off the fucking ground. |
