What size wheels do you have?

So since I'm buying new wheels this year, it got me thinking about how everyone has a different preference to the shoes they put on their baby. So what size wheels do you have? Why did you choose to go with that particular size, and are you happy with it still? If you're not happy, what size would you change to?

I am running 20's FR500 Black Chrome 20x8.5 in the front and 20x10 in the rear. I bought them used wheels/tires for $500 I couldnt say no to that! Tires 255/35/20 and 275/35/20 Nitto INVO's

My preference would be 18's so that there is more sidewall, but I am happy with what I have. I do plan to go 295's in the rear. Love the wide tires look on these cars!

Depends, on what you want...

If you want a lot of bling the 20" are nice and fit well with a LOWERED s197. However you will not have a lot of traction.

I prefer the 18" with some meat on the tires. I like the fat ass look. I prefer the wheel wells to be filled to the max.

18" with a tall sidewall makes it look like a MUCH larger wheel. The 20" have such a short sidewall traction will be less, and actually does not fill the entire wheel due to the tire selection available.

I run 305 45 18 Nitto 555r's

......Take a good guess......

And she wasnt lowered

18's Chris

17's because its running stock tires

17s with 255 Fooled you both

I should have known better, cause ive seen them with my own 2 eyes

Yeah, I definitely like 18s better, and not just for the look, but for the ride. When you go up, you lose some comfort. I wonder how big a Nitto tire I could get away with on a 8 inch front & 9.5 rear?

they where 255/50/17 Falken Ziex tires

255/45/18 front
285/45/18 rear

Max 295/45/18 According to the website on a 9.5 Run a 255 up front. Nice and wide and wont rub

Once again james ur wrong! Hahahahaha man I'm provin ya wrong all the time......sucker

9.5 up front and 10.5 out back for me.

the extra rim will allow you to run a smaller 275 tire or a large tire like mine 305

the $10-20 extra a rim is worth it.

I run 255/45/18's all round. I prefer drivability so 18s are great balance of style & performance.

I plan on increasing the rear tyre size next set though.

Yeah, I know, but the rims I want only come in the 8/9.5 in the 18 inch. I wish I could find some that I liked that had a deeper stagger.

I got rid of the stock rims (with 3 different brands of tires ) got a deal on the 05 rims w/ knock off hubs/ with tires for $500. If someone else is buying i'd like to go with a smaller sidewall for better cornering (yeah i know that i need to install a rear swaybar also ).

Right now im running the stock 16s with stock tires, i wanna get some new tires on the 18s i bought from laura. Whats the biggest i can go on the rears? The are the GT premium bullits. believe they are 18x8.5

19x9.5 and 19x11 here

Alex ask Chris (weedwacker) he seems to know all about tire fitment here

275 is about the limit. U can do 285 or 295 but ur pushin ur luck
