Default Tires and Rims

I was just wondering.... is it a good idea to buy new rims and keep my stock tires on? Should I just buy new tires too? What are your opinions? Any information would be greatly appreciated!! I just need to get an idea of what size rims and tires I should buy this weekend. THANKS!!

I see that you're from the Bronx, which a lot of people know is known for pot holes galore. I'd stay away from the low pro 205/40's or anything like that. Maybe a 205/50R15 matched with a nice light/strong rim. That's what I would suggest.

What are you planning to do with your car?Are you going for show or autocross or some form of racing?It depends on what your trying to accomplish?Be a little more discriptive of what your goals are and you probably get more answers.
If your going to buy new wheels, I would go with atleast a 15 inch wheel.I'm riding on a 15x7 wheel and 195/50/15 tires, but I going to switch to a light weight 16 or 17 inch wheel, you can find a wider selection of performance tires for 16 inch and larger wheels!
