Rims
With any size rim bigger then 15 inch (stock size) do you need bigger tires?And all the bigger tires that fit 17 inch rims cost a fortune and tread life is less then on stock tires right? Also doesnt the rim size make your speedometer off and gas mileage worse?

Rep Power: 0 - use the tire calc option next to the member rides, diy, parts, etc....... links.
- our stock tire is 185/65/15.
- if u get 17 rims, you should get these size tires: 205/40/17, 205/45/17, 215/40/17, or 215/45/17.
- if u used the tire calc option, you will notice that those tire sizes come close to the same size as the stock.

Rep Power: 0 I worried about many of the same things when I was considering buying rims..........I soon said what the hell, and ordered 17's with 205/40/17 Toyo FZ4 Proxes wrapped around them. Absolutely no regrets.[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]
