wheel+tire visual comparing?
i stumbled across a link on here somewhere that took you to a page where you could type in what one wheel and tire you have and put on what you want or compare another and it gave you a visual size diffrence on everything from offset to diameter and whatnot. anyone know what i'm talking about? anyone have that link handy? i don't even remember what i was looking up and i totaly forgot to save it.
dont know if this is any help but there are only a few wheels to chose from but you can see them on the car...
just go to www.tirerack.com

what i'm looking for though shows a visual compareson between two diffrent wheel ypes. not on the car it's self but in general between the wheels. it's hard to explain, i remember finding a link on here about a month or so ago and i can't seem to find it again.

I like this site cause you can choose the color/wheel and amount of drop.

thats pretty nifty, one thing i find odd though is it says that the Motegi Trak Lite *version 1* comes in 16/17/18 and 19 when over the phone i was told they don't have those sizes, only the 16's... yet i stil see some wheel sites like Victoria wheels and whatnot selling 17's and 18's.
ohwell... i'm going with some Velox PG-5S's and having them fully powerder coated in flat black with maybe a gun metal lip.

thats about all else i can say. i found it once and didn't save it and totaly regreted it. i'm love'n this. helps you decide what size tires to use aswell to get the closes match to stocks or to see the total diameter diffrence in not only numbers but an actual visual aswell.

it's a great tool.
shows that 17's with 40 series 215 wide tires just about the exact same diameter as stocks. *23.8" total diameter on 17's with 40seres 215 wide vs. 23.7" total diameter on stock xB tires.* and the cool thing is, according to my measurements, you can use that size for a full time spare. if fully inflated it would a be tight squeeze while deflated with a small compact handy air pump it should fit just fine. another good side to it, if you use like say what i'm using, 17x8", being you have all that back side rim space, you can fit not only the compact air pump, but also audio neccesseties like a small HC600 battery or too and whatnot. it's perfect.
