ive seen many similar topics on different forums guess i should have paid more attention so i knew for now. im debating between using current "extra" money + tax returns for either a vacation or new tires/rims or just save it.

if i go tires/wheels i want them to be the same size front and rear so i can still rotate. not sure if i should get 17s or 18s, they are only going to have street tires if i get to the point i want a "track set" with slicks or w/e ill mount them on the OEM wheels probably. whats the widest i could run and not have to roll the fenders or cut or modify anything, i could just throw them on and not have any major rubbing issues. the style i want i could get 17x9.5, 18x9.5, or 18x10.5 (see link http://www.wheelreplicas.com/c5.htm ). and for those wheel sizes what are the biggest tire i could safely run on each?

The current "size to have" for racing is 315/35-17 all around on 17x11. Most people use the 50mm offset wheels. This will require rolling the rear fender lips, trimming the outside of the rear bumpstop, and using a 1/4" spacer in the front. They actually fit better in the front than in the back. BTW, this is not a very good size for street use.

I know what your getting at. However, driving my Nitto 315's on the street has been an extreme pleasure! It will be very difficult to go back to 275's ! Crazy grip.

I never intended to have bling wheels. However, everywhere I go I get positive commments. I have also found out from several friends that the tire/rim combo is very intimidated to the "street racer" crowd.

I rank this modification on par with new shocks/bars and skip shift delete. The car should come stock with it!

One thing left out in this thread (I think) is that the inner fender needs some motivation towards the car's centerline.
