You would be way better off if you bought some 15x6.5 or 15x7 with an offset range from +35 to +41 with a 195/55 tire .

thanks htm! i think i gonna hve to drop it then go somewhere n pay for mount n balance of different wheel sizes n offsets to decide. jus dont have money now for new tires. if i figure out how to post pics, i will.
Y M I SPELL CHEKIN! IF U DONT UNDERSTAND ME DONT REPLY, THANKS!!!

I would go with 6.5 with stock tires . If you like your kidneys to remain intact and lessen the chance of a compression fracture (spine) , you don't want to lower any more .

If you're gonna get some new wheels, you better get some other tires to go with them. The 185/60's will look hella stupid on some 15x7's or 15x8's. They will poke out,and will be really skinny, especially with the offsets you plan on running. Just save your cash until you have enough to get the wheel/tire combo. There's no rush if you wanna do something the right way. You could always get a smaller wheel(15x5.5-15x6.5) that would suit the tires better than a 15x7.

guys, this is what i believe he is going for/what he wants for his cars stance with the stretched tire/wide wheel/low offset.\



I can promise you wont be flush like this on df's with a 15 inch wheel, still too much wheel gap, gonna need coilovers for that one bro. I dont suggest cutting springs.I ride df's with a 15x6.5 and this is me

That's a thick sidewall you got there...

When talking to a guy at Tire Rack, he said that a 185/60 was too narrow for even a 15x6.5 wheel. If you look at the tire specs that are listed on their site for the 185/60's, most manufacturers state that those tires should be run on a 5.5" to 6.5" wheel. A 15x7 will stretch those sidewalls and kill your ride and tread life. I would look at a 195/55 or 205/50 instead.

ya i know theyre thick, but i needed the cheapest tires sears had at the moment, and these were it.
