Default Stock rim switch to 15" rims, question.

The stock rims on a 93 dx are how big? 14" or less?
If i use 15" rims with the same size tires will everything work okay speedometer etc?

everything will be fine. your speedo might be off, but not by a noticable amount. If you get the right profile tires, then your diameter will actually be the same as with the 14s

no. As I said before, if you get 15 inch rims with lower profile tires, then the tire will be the same size around as your 14s were, thus, no change, except if your 15s are way heavier than your 14s, which they are probably not.

For 92-95, the correct size would be 195/50/15.
