Diamond Racing 13's or 15's
I'm going to get some diamond racing wheels and dont know wether to get 15x7's or 13x7's would one handle better than the other and would I have to adjust my speedo for the correct speed? Could yall post some advice and pics of both so I can decide please. thank you

If you have non se brakes, then you could run the 13's. The thirteens would offer a bit better weight savings and also be cheaper to put rubber on. My choice would be the 13's as I think they look much better.

225/45/ 15's are the closest match if you want to retain an accurate speedo. This is for a car that came with 185/70/r13's from the factory. heres a link to help you.

i run the 13 x7's on mine and i love them. speedo is off but oh well. the really seem to help the acceleration out of corners in autoxing with that small diameter. kinda weird going to a strip though with those small tires and slightly larger rear end gears and getting well into FIFTH gear in the quarter. i don't have any pics of mine but if your car has been lowered a fair amount they look sexy

Rollin' coal and 53mpg!
205/50-15 Falken Azenis fill out the wheel well NICELY.... I've got them on my 15x8" Centerlines, and they stick out a little, but that's what CP Racing's fender flares are for

Iwould go with the 13x7.
you can use the 215 tire, and this is a legal wheel size incase you goto IT racing.
Attached is a couple pics of Robs (rob81gsl)car in action.
