Well when I got my car it came with some freedomdesign 16" x 7.5" rims. They had some worn 205/55/R16 tires on them.

I went back to some 195/65/R14 on stock wheels and noticed a 4% increase in torque. Which was real nice, but I feel like I can't turn anymore. For the summer I'd like to get some new rubbers on the 16s.


My FC is a 4 bolt. I'd like to get some 225/45/R16, to maintain the stock radius but I don't know if the 4 bolt suspension can take that? Also will it rub?

 

i ahve my car lowered 1.75 with intrax springs and have ran 18/215's all around no problem

 

I have a set of gunmetal Ray's Engineering Gram light 57C's that I brought in specifically for the 4 lug FC. The fitment I got is amazing:

17,7.5 front

17,8.5 rear

This will allow for a 215/45 front and 245/40/ rear. This was specially ordered three months ago and we have them in stock now. I can do an incredible deal on these if you're interested.

These wheels only weigh 16 lbs, FYI. They are lightweight.

 

These will not rub. The SE model follows the same fitment recipe as the rest. The only shitty part is that it's very difficult to get a staggered setup for that car.

This is the ideal setup for that car. especially on a N/A.

 

sorry im kinda late replying and this may seem really dumb but how did you fit the 14'' rubber on a 16'' rim

 

oops i didnt read the stock wheel part
