What's up fellows. I just ordered some MRR HR2's and should arrive in a week. They are 20x8.5 and 20x9.5. Im not educated in tires as I should be. I called up belle tire to see what they have to offer and the dude was like "20's on a honda??? really??" Idiot. But anyways I'm thinking 245/35/20 in the front but what do I do in the back. I would like for the tire to stretch alil bit as they are pretty wide wheels with a +45 offset. Discount tire said to but 245/35 on both fronts and backs. Is that right?? Ive been searching on here for a couple days now but havent really seen sedans with that set up.
Or redirect me to a thread that has been started on this already. Thanks guys, cant wait to get the wheels on. Oh and I am lowered on the pro kit.

245/35 would be ideal for the front, they recommend a wheel width of 8-9.5 inches. That size would work on the rears too but would be at the upper limit. Since you're running a staggered setup and can't rotate the tires anyways, you could go 275/30 in the rear. The overall tire height is only 0.1 inches less than the 245/35 on the 20x8.5. It would look better with the staggered wheel setup because your rear tires would be 1.18 inches wider than the front.
I don't know if it will fit but Discount Tire should be able to tell you. The reason they recommended 245/35 on the front and rear is because not many people put staggered wheels on FWD cars.
