Drift Motion Posted March 3, 2014 Share Posted March 3, 2014 if you want to be lazy and not do research, then listen to what other have stated already otherwise, do your own research and figure out what is best for youself you should go for 195/50/18 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

klane88 Posted March 4, 2014 Author Share Posted March 4, 2014 Offset is 42 I believe. if you read what I said early...I've done research I have a idea of what to run. Just wanted to see what other people may think or have tried themselves first hand, in no way I'm I lazy. When did seeking advice from other become a sign or laziness? Not everyone is a wheel guru lol I just want something that will fit nice and ride well Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am overjoyed that you have found your way to our little corner of the internet. I am waiting with baited breath for your next utterance.

.Catalyst. Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 Yeah I've read it, I'm asking from ppl who may have actual experience. The people who contributed to the linked thread DO have actual experience. The point of those stickied threads is to find them quickly, especially for new owners. Regurgitating what's been hashed out over the last 10 years this platform has been out is tiring. You are either lazy or stupid if you can't find the answers you need in this section of the forum. Nothing about what you asked or are attempting is "new" or "different" than what owners have been doing for a decade now. I'm hungry now - who's going to fix me up a sammich?

WaspGT Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 OP The fact that you're car isn't lowered and you want to throw on some rims, is bad enough. But hey, opinions are like assholes, right? Unless you're planning on tucking 24's on your gangster whip, why would you ever need to roll your fenders? Even if the wheels you choose are offset enough to consider your vehicle a roller skate, the Legacy has crazy wheel gap. The gimp suit reference just about made me have an accident. Here .:Catalyst:.
