Couldn't come up with a set width on wheels for 1st gens threw the search. anyone know the widest you can fit without going widebody. I might decide against the widebody, for more of a sleeper effect on the street, but don't wanna sacrifice too much traction once i'm putting out the power i'm planning on.

215s in the back 205s in the front, i think. i had 205s all around. umm, maybe 225s, with suspension work, ie; adjustable in the front which will use smaller diameter springs. turning ratio might be affected, though. then again it all depends on what offset u get.

wheels. so an offset is allowed. just can't rub on the fenders. and i'm more or less just concerned with the rear.

I have 225's on the rear right now and if I had some 235's back there it would sit flush with my wheel wells.The width really depends on the wheel off set.I have 205/55/R15's in the front tho.I don't want any front rubbing against my new suspension setup.
