TIre issue.. need size help
I have 16" slipstreams i have a 205/40/16 tires. i need to go as big as possible without rubbing. car is lowered 1.5". I figured a 205/50/16 might work, my new header scarps the ground Thanks to our fabulous city workers. If i could just raise the car about .5" to an inch.
thanks
thanks

Re: TIre issue.. need size help
well when you change your tire profile size like that, your gonna be messing up your speedometer. even though it probably already is, it'll just make it worse. not to mention it'll look frickin wierd. IMO either don't have your car lowered that much (get different springs) or learn how to drive a lowered car well. I have a friend with a 240sx, his exhaust is MAYBE 3 inches off the ground, and he does fine on our terrible roads.
