  • just bought some 15's

    so i bought some jdm 15's they are 6 inches wide with a 40mm offset and i would like to keep the rubber around what stock is but the whole system of tires confuses me. I tried using the calculator and all the numbers i put in didn't work out. If someone has 15x6 i would love to know what size rubber you run.

    195/50/15 will be the closest you can find that are EASILY attainable (there are 195/45/15 available but only one company makes them.) also search onlinetires.com they have 165/50/15s from Federal (i'm looking into these myself)
    Trees aren't kind to me...

    currently: 2 88Ls (Scrappy and Jersey), 88LX, 90L(Pepe), 91L, 91GL (Skippy) 93 GL Sport (the Mighty Favakk), 94 (Bruce) & 95 Aspire SEs, 97 Aspire (The Joker),
    94 Justy 4WD, 87 Fiero GT, plus 2 parts cars. That's my fleet.

            The lower spring perch will rub a little. The Aspire strut has a "higher" spring perch.


            Take it back to the back porch, join the 3 string revolution.
