I have, right now, the ugly stock rims (they look like hubcaps.) On them I have Yokohama AVID H4s tires, 195/60/15 87H, that are brand new.

Now, From what I've read, the stock rims are 15x5.5; I don't know how right that is.

What I'm looking at buying are a pair of Enkei wheels, either size 15x6 or 15x6.5. I think the majority of them are 15x6.5.

so my main question is, if I were to replace my 15x5.5 wheels with these 15x6.5, will my yokohamas still fit on?

secondly, if I switch to a 15x6.5, am I going to notice any difference?

It's probably logical and basic, but I honestly don't know... so I figured I'd just ask.

If and When I do switch the rims, discount tire (who put my yokohamas on) should swap them and adjust everything for free.

thank you everyone.

 

something like these might be good (once I start working again )



Motegi MR7 15x6.5

 

so my main question is, if I were to replace my 15x5.5 wheels with these 15x6.5, will my yokohamas still fit on?
Yes, however a 205/60 or a 215/60 would be a better fitment and would take advantage of the additional rim width. Rule of thumb: The tread width should be no less that the rim width.

Secondly, if I switch to a 15x6.5, am I going to notice any difference?
You may notice less "******" (the condition where the car pulls to one side as it rolls over a road seam parellel to the direction of travel), but at the expense of possible wear along the tire sholder (area where the sidewall meets the tread.
P

 

the style of those motegi wheels aside...

i run a 195/60 on a 15 x 7 wheel and haven't had any problems. don't notice much difference.

 

well, just so happens that w/the mr7's.. i have those wheels daddy..the 18" version.




18's are the way to go

 

Please don't get those rims....please?

But 195/60 shouldn't give you any problems on a 15x7, why not get a 16"x7 wheel?

 

Cuz he's already got a set of new 15" Yokohamas'..................
