Well I figured I'd try a small wheel wide tire stance. Think it'd look bad?
The old rims were like 7.5 with I think +38 offset. I'm not crazy low, but I plan on going lower when I get the new wheels. My biggest concern is rubbing. It used to drive me nuts. And how heavy they were.
I m aiming to keep a stock rim size and try to get a sturdier sidewall than the 65 that comes stock. Also, 15 inch rims and tires are cheaper than 17s
My ride thread has some examples of my current stance if you'd like an idea.

16s

I’ve never seen a set of aftermarket 15’s on our cars that I liked, to be honest. Until that white sedan posted above, that doesn’t look bad.

The gold one needs meatier tires though, I agree. Doesn’t look right.

7.5 huh. Yeah I mean unless they were spaced out I don’t see how they’d rub. But apparently they did, lol.
