If your car is lowered you might need to cut the tabs at the rear bumper. :)

You'll be fine.

At worst you'll have to do this, but if you're not lowered and on the standard Motegi wheels then ignore: http://www.ludegeneration.co.uk/honda-p ... -t535.html

Alternatively, you could try Michelin Pilot Exalto 2's in 215/45/17 - not the same but were looovely on another car I used to have. Really progressive.

If you go for the PS2's let us know how they are. Got Goodyear Eagle F1's at present but will need replacing in about 10k I suppose... probably try the Rainsport 3's next time.

going for the mich's as the car will be a fine weather runner as its only done 34700 miles and the tyre spec s is wet weather "a" and fuel eff "f" meaning very grippy hence the "f" :D

Sounds good :D I did look at those myself.

Amazing mileage. Makes my 53k look like an old timer.
