This has been asked many times before. Try a search!

i've had 15"s and that was pushing it, i've seen pics of 16"s and heard of someone putting on 17"s, but i would want anymore than 15"s any bigger and it starts to looks weird

[pyrothehitman]

thanx guys...i did a search afterwards and there were plenty of threads...so my apologies

One guy here had 17's. looked silly though

Once when I had my car up on stands we bolted a set of 19's to it. Pretty much as soon as the tires hit the ground they were hittin. I like the look of my 15's. Pretty much the limit with no mods/no rubbing.

Gomez, I've seen yours before but can't remember the details. What size 15s are you running? No mods?

i thought about jacking up my festiva and putting one of my 20" rims in the wheel wells (they won't bolt on, different bolt pattern) just for the picture :lol:

Do it!

I have 16x7 with 205/40/16 tires. I wouldn't get any bigger than that. They
look big, but not stupid huge. The diameter of the tire is 1 inch taller than stock.

15x6.5 +38 with 195/45-15 Toyo's No mods. fit perfect. no rubbing inside or out. front or rear.

i was always a guy who liked huge rims on cars....so i automatically wanted the biggest rims i could fit on a festy (although i dont have a festy yet) but i have to admit, the more i look at the festy i think the smaller rims look better....plus it brings it closer to the floor...i wanna see if i can find rims like the one's on the green car in my sig.

I ran the same setup at Gomez... My car was lowered too with the FMS springs (which lowers about 1.25" or so) and I didn't rub.

I went with 13's on Casper though with 175/50 tires. It lowered the car another inch without having to do anything (except re-calculate the MPH that I'm going! :-P)

[miami man]

some one told me about a year ago that you have to make sure that the rime clears the caliper,ect. i do not know how true this is.

[Kofkof_00]

Simon, you ran 15' with the fms setup?

...

I've been eying some wheel shops, but 15" is the smallest they carry. NOOOOOO looks like I'm going to be spendings $1300 soon.
