I am thinking about something similar. Please post an additional pic or two. How 'bout some details also, what brand of wheel and specs. Thanks.

sure i will soon, it seems like these tires are making quite a bit of road noise. is this just because the size or is it something else?

[txgcoupe]

Give us the whole scoop.

Did these rims come with tires already mounted? If so, the noise is probably due to worn/cupped tires.

What size are the rims? Include the width of the rim.

the rims came with tires already mounted but the tires has good tread (90%) and only 2 months old when i bought them. the rims are 20" width is 8" or 8.5 i dont remember.

I would take them to a good tire shop and have them looked at.

Even with good tread a tire can become noisy due to improper prior alignment and air pressure.

Pics Added!

also i went to the tire shop today and they said theres nothing i cant do but to live with the noise since they are low profile tires

Honestly, just my opinion. I would try to see if you could put fatter/bigger tires on them also to fill the wheel gap. To me those tires looks way to small for a car like that, especially because the EX isn't a big car to begin with, those tires looking small on it should mean something. Nonetheless, those wheels look like a good choice, congrats on the new updated wheels, I like the black wheel look.

agreed but i had no choice i bought these for a great price (they were originally on a maxima) theres no way i would spend a grand buying new tires. maybe later on when i need new tires.these wheels are only an inch less in diameter than the stock ones

these low profile wheels are a bit uncomfortable but they look great
