- My Honda Prelude is currently on 17x9.5 wheels and I'm comparing how a 215/40 tire and a 215/45 tire will look on my car. I really want that stance style but my rear coilovers don't allow me to go any lower and so I decided to try out a more meaty setup.

I run 205/40R18 on 18x9.5. Slammed as low as i can! Love the vids bro!
Denggg, at one point I was running 205s as well but the roads here are way too trash to risk it 😂😂🔥
As long as you keep the same size tires on the drive axles, you'll be fine. I don't believe the tire size matters as long as the opposite side (Ex. Rear Driver and Rear Passenger) are the same size. It might affect handling and ride quality slightly, but that's about it.
Funny thing i like the staggered look, with a bigger size tires on the back. I had that set up on my del sol..
I used to run a stagger setup too!! But it doesn’t make sense on a fwd if your wheels are wider in the rear 😩
215/45 is the look but 225/45 in the front would look baller asf
Man.. This prelude got nice engine now 😮
Yoooo. You are the best bro! I put on that Subaru lip that you showed off on my lude last week. It looks legit! Now I am looking to get some 17x9 bronze/gold rims for my freshly painted black lude & your video came up. I am woorried about fitment. I want low profile, but no stretch so I dont crack my rims.
Had an 2001 mugen white and sprayed some pearl white to make it shine more.
Had the car for almost 9 years baby it , never seen rain / winter. Probbaly put 5,000 miles a year, sold it around 70 k miles after seening vip cars for tge 1st time, i wanted that super low wide stance big ass and lip wheel look that no one would dare ir try to attempt on a prelude at the time.
This before the hondas start messing around with their wheel set up, camber , stance , poke , what ever there is out thwir now.
If u had a mint car sitting on nice wheels flush, u were good, people were still gate keeling offsets like it some. Secret saauce at the time.
Remember no one wanted to give out their offset wheels set up.
Anyways, as the car game change, i really miss my honda prelude, and how u can set it up with all these varitions style , it gives it a new fresh air .
So nostalgic i wanted to buy one but never thought they be on some endanger spices type of shit and turn into a classic worth 15k in good shape. U can get rust buckets for less then 10 k but as u know honda rust is terrible.
Anyways good to see somme ppl keeping thwse cars alive.
Looking good homie
what's the offset of the wheels? I just put on a 17x8.5 +30 on 225/45/17 tire but it is poking, (not lowered yet) I want to go for a similar look of slightly tucked, I am planning on lowering it, should I get smaller tire size? or would it matter with the wheel offset?
Clean bro very clean!!
Meaty🔥
Meaty look better and will feel better while riding. You will get less road noise. Looks goo though.
Looks good bro !!
i have brand new 7,25x17 set of wheels for my prelude with 35 central bore… i consider buying a 215/45r17 set of tyres… what do you think will this fitment be alright for the lude and also what are the specs of your wheels … hope to get an answer 🔥
I run the 215 45 on my mazda 6 and they look small on my car like you said it looks kinda empty...lol looks clans AF..
Prelude looks good my guy!
thanks bro! Still plenty more to come!
I can’t decide either lmao. I’m running 18x9 front+35 and 18x9.5 rear +35 on my 99 Toyota solara with a negative camber of 2 degrees. 215/35/18. I think I might go 40 series just to be safe lol
215/45 is the correct size. Your speedometer will be correct. That is the size I run on mine. 215/45/17.
OH heck yeah!!! Well.. I'm still running 215/40 in the front tho.. hahah
@@Rawrkee if you remember I told you that I was in an accident in my 98, and was hoping they wouldn't total it. They did.
@@Rawrkee they gave me 7700.00 for it took out my 250 deductible and allowed me to keep the car for 480.00 that left me right at 7000.00 to get another car. LMAO! I bought a 97 lude for 3000.00. Its in really good shape. Freshly rebuilt engine, new clutch kit, lowering coilovers. Etc. Only problems I have found so far is a leak in the power steering, and the ac doesn't work. However I have a whole ass parts car! Let me know if there is something you need. I have it. Well most of it anyway.
If you like it better with the arch closer to the rim you need to lower it dude! tyre size wouldn't change that at all but the bigger tyres look sooo much better and will feel loads better too!
Yes bro get the 45 all the way around
Yesssssssirrrrr🔥🔥🔥
My last prelude was on 225/50/17 👌🏻
How wide were your wheels?
Hola me puedes ayudar con algo y gracias de antemano quisiera saber qué si una llanta 17 et40 me funcionaria en mi prelude 5 generación
Sí, puede funcionar, pero la rueda sobresaldrá mucho. Eso significa que no podrá bajar mucho su automóvil a menos que instale kits de inclinación ajustable delantera y trasera.
How do you run that setup without no rubbing it seems like? I got 17x8.5, 210/40/17 n they rub hella on the inside of the tire. Figuring it out
Camber kit, rolled and pulled fenders, and on top of that, the tire stretch is critical too
My wheels are 1 inch wider than yours so I still have more stretch than your setup
you need 18' rims bro...
it'll raise my car thoooo AND make it much harder to get the right fitment without bags haha
how safe is this? lol
im pretty hesitant to do these stretches on tires... thoughts?
I never really cared about stretched tires but since I'm running 9.5 wide wheels and wanna ride low, I had to opt for stretched tires. The ride quality is def rough/bumpy/noisy. I've unofficially cruised at 80mph and they're fine. You just need to watch out for debeading which usually happens when you're turning and hit a pothole. stretched tires, you'll have to cruise at lower speeds if you wanna prevent cracking your wheels and debeading. def makes you more mindful of your car and how you're driving
What front/rear lips and side skirts and do you have bro?
you got any spare Honda prelude body kits
Go with the 215/45/17 brodie. That’s what I’m running on my enkei’s. Just ready for my Godspeed mono ss coil overs🙏🏽
I like how his 215/45's fit on the back. I plan on getting 17x9 wheels. Would that be what I need or do I need to go a little smaller since it is .5 inch smaller?
You've got stock suspension?
No, everything that needs to be modified, has been modified 🤣
What rims are those? Looks dope
Lmk if you selling em😂😂
What are your thoughts on 18x8 wheels on a prelude with 215/40 and 205/35?
18x8.5 w 225 40 18
I like the vors tr4
wait your names rocky aswell?
what's jj rim ???
What coilovers do you have?
Tein Type HA - They’re old school coilovers
@@Rawrkee ok so you have drop forks? I have truhart they ride good but the fronts are maxed and it’s not low enough I mean it’s good but a little lower won’t hurt 😂😂
What your wheel specs? 17x8.5
9.5 +30
Why not get wider tyres?
The wider the tire, the less clearance. I don’t want stretched tires but it’s the only way to make 9.5 fit and being very low
Wouldn’t a smaller wheel be better and lighter?
The smaller one would fit and also the tire would match.
Where can I find theseee 🥶🥶
The wheels??? They’re Varrstoen ES2
@@Rawrkee Thanks!! Need them on my Lude ASAP.
@@seanstropicalvlogs6663 shoot man, 17s are discontinued tho but you can probably find them used
45 looks better
