what is the biggest size of rim that can go on the 85 gs, with low profiles and whatnot...the 13's are just a little small for me, although they look good...what are you all sporting?

205/50R15 the front right rubbed slightly. washers took care of the problem.

I have 15's on mine, but I think I would rather have bought 16's.

I have 16" Enkei rims on mine with 205/50R16 Pirelli P700 tires. They look kickass and have even caught the eye of a few breasted teenegers
