Aftermarket Wheel & Tire Fitment

[Markocampo]

I am actually looking for wheel/tires in the other direction. I would like 16" that should give a better ride (I believe). I am an old guy and don't need the new look, I would like a smoother ride. I see that TireRack.com suggests 16" for snows for the Ct200h, but they don't show 16" for summer tires. Has anyone out there used 16s?

Here in Canada base CT is fitted with 205 55 16 all season tires

I might just found a potential set of wheels that actually fits without spacers!


1) Size is 18x7.5 +48 offset PCD 5x100. Will this fit??
2) With the 7.5 width and higher offset how will the stance compare to the OEM wheels?
3) What tires should I use? 225/40R18 or 215/40R 18?


Thanks in advance!

Im thinking of going real aggressive with my ct. What do you guys think about 18x10 +38 wrapped in 225/35/18 in the back and 18x9 +38 wrapped in 215/35/18 in the front? I know i am gonna have to roll and pull but is it doable?

Kind of off topic, but what cars besides the CT uses 5x100 lug pattern?

Definitely aggressive in the rear, but doable. Pulling and rolling is a must. I'm doing 19x9.5 +30 in rear; I don't think I had to roll, but I did in anticipation. You might want to go 235/35/19 in the back since 225 will barely cover the 10. For my 9.5, I made the mistake of going 225/35/19 and it's stretched way too much. Scraped my brand new rims going up a normal driveway because there just isn't much cushion for the lip and it bounced vertically and nicked the lip. I'm switching over to 235/35/19 in the rears because of this.

You can actually go 225/35/18 in the front with tight clearance but have more cushion for your front rim. You don't want it too stretched on the rim since you'll scratch the lip when you go over potholes or go up and down driveways due to lack of cushion.
