Simple question?

I have 94 teg with 17 inch Racing Hart lowered on KYB and Koni Sport with WW Type II kit. I scrape like hell (exhaust including) on ramps and stuff especially at work where there is a steep incline. I wanna swap the 17 for 15 inch gsr rims. Will I cause more damage to my car. I was also thinking of getting 16 inch Enkei. Should I leave them alone?

Also with Brand new tires in the front I wasn't able to make u turn without hearing a scratching sound. I think my tire where rubbing against something. It went away when I move the front new tire to the rear and the rear old tires to the front. Will I have this problem with 15 or 16.

depends on the tires that are on the gsr's, if its a 50 series you'll be about 1/2 an inch lower so you'll scrape more if its a 55 series it will be close to the same, this is assuming that you have a 40 series tire on you 17s right? you wont rub on turns with the gsr's though. my suggestion is to go for a 16 cause the stocks look kinda small when your spotin a kit, HTH !

Good advice. What size tires should I go with on the 16

 

i'd go for a 45 series, cause theyre still low profile but they'll fill the wheelwell nicely and give you a better ride than a 40 would.
