I need some wheel advice.

Post by Q187 »

Well we're commin up on christmas soon and I think all i'm ganna ask for is money to put into my car. I'm probably ganna get some new wheels. I have a white 92 gs with the stock wheels on there right now. What size rims do you think I should look at? I think bigger wheels will increase handling but slow down the car, is that correct? What brand should I look at/keep away from? One more thing, if I do get bigger wheels, I know i have to get thinner tires to keep the same ratio, do I have to do anything else to the car to make them fit right? Thanks a lot.

I think you should go with 17 inch mags. I have 16 inch mags with 205/40/R16 tires and I find them really nice but it leaves too much of a big gap between the wheels and the car even if you lower it. Personally, I think that 17's would look better.
