...that the car comes with? I want some rims put on and this is what is says:

Size Selected: 15x6.5
Estimated Availability: 08/29/05
Recommended Tire Size: 185/60-15
Wheel Offset: +38mm
** Lightweight: 15.4 lbs. **


I never did this whole "rim" thing before... so I am LOST.

Do I buy new tires or use the ones it came with?

Tammie


PS - Thanks in advance

 

Get 15" rims, 5.5 to 6.7 width, same offset. You will see offsets from 30 to 40 and generally they will work fine with the stock tires. The 185/60x15 is the stock tire. If you want a wider tire a 195/60 will fit and work, but your speedo may be about 1 or 2 mph off. If you try a 205 tire you would most likely want to go to a 55 aspect ratio.

Thanks Walt Would it be ugly to keep the stock tires with new rims? They arent expensive ones...just simple.
