lowangle · 02-24-2013, 01:00 PM

Any recommendations or pics?

Depending on your roads it can be your prerogative.. But 16's should be good with a meaty tire:thumbup:

I'm looking to do 15s I've got 18s right now really hard riding with stock suspension

tanker19kilo · 02-24-2013, 04:56 PM

Made the switch to 16's. I love the ride quality.

jay05acr · 02-24-2013, 05:15 PM

16's ftw

fivetoez · 02-24-2013, 06:21 PM

The roads here are real bad in the winter, soo i wanted alot of sidewall to absorb the potholes & frostheaves
195/60/15's on tireack 17lb. Alum rims.

these are my snowtires, they make the car ride much smoother!

16x7 or 16x7.5, 225/50 tire. Great everyday setup. tons of choices, lower prices than other sizes, will ride and grip just fine.

TropicanaNSRT · 02-25-2013, 12:41 PM

I have 17s and the ride quality is fine even with my tein springs. Is there a huge difference between 16 and 17s

tanker19kilo · 02-25-2013, 02:55 PM

After installing rebuilt and powder coated calipers.

I was running a 17x7 w/ 225/45 now these are 16x7 225/50 and ride a lot less bumpy.

jay05acr · 02-25-2013, 03:15 PM

Damn Leroy I think I'm going to have to copy your rims and get rid of the bbs's

ACR_Joe · 02-25-2013, 04:24 PM

16s and beefy tires rock, they look the best on the SRT IMO, but I have the ACR BBS wheels so... Keep in mind; the tire sidewall makes a big difference too (regardless of tire size).

I like the no nonsense look of 15s , they look all business , no flash .
15x7 rota slips , 225/60/15 BFG g-force sports .

I went with 15s for better tire prices , selection , and best sidewall . Now I just need a another pair of rotas for some drag tires .

Ha I have those same wheels on my car right now for my snows. They were definitely the best bang for the buck on tire rack for the 15" options. Get a lot of people thinking they're evo 8 wheels for some reason lol
