Rubbing tires on stock suspension????
« Reply #30 on: April 09, 2004, 06:48:00 PM »

How about some 18's.Just put some on my 91 and they look awsome. they ride great needed to put a little bit of spacing in the rear but no problem with them at all. Will be getting some h&r's soon because they still have a gap. I'm riding on 215-35-18 tires, I'll be posting some pictures this weekend.

You going to get the speedo recalibrated? With 18" wheels, when you car says your doing 60 mph you will actually be doing 66 mph.

I,m not going to worry about the speedo to much especially if going faster than what it says, it would be diffrent if I were going slower but as long as I can keep up with traffic I'm cool with that.

The wheels don't really have anything to do with it. It's the size of the tires. You could put 20's on and not throw off the speedo if you feel like running on rubberbands....

Ya i know its not the rims them selves, but the proper tire size needed will yield about that speed difference.
