Rota Slipstream Question
I'm getting some new rims soon and I am thinking of the black Slips with polished lip in a 15. I have an 04 SSM coupe and I am looking at some 195/60-15 Falken Ziex 512 tires. Has anyone had experience with the tires or have pics of the rims on a civic? I have searched the wheel pic thread to no avail.

Any 15" tire is a "plus 0" tire. If you're saying 205/50/16, thats plus 1.
Anyways, the tire is the right size. to match the stock diameter. a 50 series 15" tire is very small and looks pretty goofy in the wheel well because the wheel well is so big. If you're racing on them, it doesn't matter what it looks like, but you'd have to dump the car through the floorboards to get it to look right all the time.

Last time I had this much fun some furniture got broken!

15" Slipstreams with 205/60/15 Falken ZE-512's. Same outer diameter as stock. I like them; they look good, and they're light (12lbs each) which not only helps with performance, but also makes it easier to move them when you're rotating your tires
