'12 EX Coupe on 17"

[fflegault]

Hi guys!

I'm new here. I just ordered those mags!

http://www.rtxwheels.com/fr/wheels/rtxwheels-blaze-orange

Specs: 17x7.5 Offset +42

1) How will it fit my 2012 EX Coupe Taffeta White? Any ajustments to consider?

2) Which tire size should I use? 205/50/R17, 215/45/R17, 215/50/R17 or larger 225/45/R17 ? I don't want tires outside fenders! Also, I want tires to fit perfectly on the wheels (no streching)!

Have a good day!

Welcome to the site. The size you want for tires is 215/45-17 to keep your speedometer in check. If you want additional rubber, 225/45-17 would also be fine. They're both within 1% of the stock readings. 215/45 is what the stock si has, so you can compare that look if you're interested in how much rubber is on it. +42 offset on a 7.5 wheel will be safe. You won't have any issues with rubbing.

Perfect! That's what I wanted to hear! I will go with 215/45-17. Thanks webby! I will share a picture of the new car look when installation is done.

I would like to see those on your car. Pictures please. I like 225/45R17 because you have the most tire options in that size.
