Default Question for those with df-210

I am gonna put the tanabe springs on but I need new tires also, so I'm wondering those of you with the 210's and stock 16s what size tire should I go with in order to not scrape on bumps and stuff. After my 20s were stolen I'm just gonna keep the stock wheels for a while. Also I kinda want to run a 225 in front and 245 in rear for when I go na-t this summer, any help is appreciated. Have a good day

No one loves me?? Dang I guess I will lower it first and see how bad it is with stock size tires. Then I need to find a front bumper stock or aftermarket.... Anybody got one taking up space??

Dude, chill, we got you!

The tanabe springs would work with stock wheels and tires without a problem. I had a 20x10.5 rear with 255/45 and it *hardly* rubbed at all... and that is way bigger than the stock wheel/tire combo.

here are pics of my car in Tanabes:




If you stick yourself to stock wheel sand tires with tanabe springs you will be fine

Hope this helps buddy :thumbsup:
