I used to run a 195/50 on mine a while back. to do what you are wanting, I would try and find something in the 185/40, or 185/45 range.

Sciond 02-02-2009, 10:38 AM you can't lay frame on a unibody yep can lay welds though........ Gothbox 02-02-2009, 04:37 PM If you're bagging on the stockies, just pull out the fender liners, then you don't have to worry about looking goofy with an undersized tire. that will help in the front yes, but does not solve the prob in the back. it would only look goofy on just a lowered car or a stock height car. if you do the right setup no matter what tires you run you will be tucking them, there for eliminating the goofy factor. burstaneurysm 02-02-2009, 05:31 PM True, but anything less than say a 50 series isn't going to fill the wheel well side to side. I dunno, I have a 50 series on my 15s and it just doesn't look as good as the 60. Granted, I'm only on DF210s, but still. Gothbox 02-02-2009, 05:35 PM the wheel gap on the sides is a valid point, I will give you that one. Big_Bird 02-02-2009, 05:44 PM you can't lay frame on a unibody yep can lay welds though........ lol, layin' pinch welds son! zim6699 02-02-2009, 07:45 PM yea the stock wheels wont stay on the car very often. i have some 18's on there now. i will use thoes for the most part. but i know i will not get any sparky sparky coming from my car going down the road. so im just looking for a cheep way to do that. i saw one of the articles about painting your steelies and i thought that actually looked nice so i thought id do that whenever i wanted to makes the sparks fly. SKIN 02-18-2009, 03:51 AM What size are your stock rims? That would determine the smallest size you could run. I am only asking because my stock wheels are 19 inch, but I know that you could get 18, 17, and 15. |
