17"ASA LW5's (not available anymore I think) with 205/50 KDW2's. A little rubbing, but I think I've got it under control. Expensive tires, but sticky as hell. I haven't been able to smoke them yet!

aight well can you give me some recommendations for both the normal size 15s and some 16s


You asked for sizes on 15s and 16s. You aren't going to try to put your 15 tires on 16 rims, are you? So that's why people are throwing out combos

rims are a personal choice.. but generally you want light and strong. I am a big fan of Enkei, but most of their current line up is UGLY in capital letters.. I will continue to run my 16 inch Enkei RPO1s, kerb rash and all rather than buy the new styles that enkei has.

Konig, I always recommend them. Rims are a personal choice, just start looking and keep the weight low.

Low being about...

15 or less pounds for 15's.

16 or less pouinds for 16's.

My Konig Traffiks weigh about 13 pounds and are 16's. My favorite mod on my car so far. Light = FAST.
