Bridgestone Blizzak WS-50 215/50QR17

Will these fit stock bbs on a 06? or are they too thin? i was looking over there specs and the 215/45 fit so i would imagine the extra sidewall should help a bit... I want thinner because if will go deeper into the snow providing better traction .

They will fit fine. I highly recommend the LM-22 or LM-25's. I have the 25's on my STi and love them. I had the WS on my Prelude and didn't care for them too much. Too soft for me.

I am running 215/45 17's on my stockers for winter. I too went with the 215 for better traction and I am extremely happy. I have a little bit of curb rash however, so when I wear these out I will more than likely go back to 225 or even 235 to try to protect my rims a little more next time.
