I'm thinking about buying new wheels and one of my friends has 205/60/R15 Kumho he could sell me. Is it worth changing 14 wheels for 15 ones? considering the fact that I run on stock suspension kit?
Thanks, Bert. oh, and the question is, what wheel size should I buy? (16? 17?) -------------------- -PHILI- ![]() |

I'm at work on my cell phone, but when I get home I'll post up pictures of my old hatchback on 15" wheels and 17" wheels.
Most people here opt for a set of 17"x7" (sometimes 7.5") wheels with 225/45R-17 tires. Looks good, and there is plenty of meat on those tires to absorb bumps and dips in the road. Personally, I would go with a nice 16x7 (or even 8") wheel (like rota slipstreams) and put a 225/50R-16 tire on it. -------------------- 1991 MR2 - T-tops - Crimson Red - Gen3 3SGTE - Lots of money

Yeah they're Rays G-Games and I believe the model is Wolf 77. Tires were wimpy Kumho Escta 205/40R-17.
Picked them up brand new with the new kumhos for $650. -------------------- 1991 MR2 - T-tops - Crimson Red - Gen3 3SGTE - Lots of money

thanks bud, I think I'll go with the 16's. Even if the 17's are smooth enough on bumps, I live in Québec, and roads are soooooooooooo nasty here so... thanks for the advice!
