    everybody with slip streams....

    do the 16s look big enough... does the car ride okay... how much of a drop do i need to ALMOST tuck tire... what size tires do i get to put me in about the same range as the stock wheels\tire combo.. ex: stock=198/65/15 so... 16s would be something like... 215 or 205 /55/16 or should i go smaller on the profile... and to people who read this that dont have 16s... should i get 16s or 17s... let me know every one... thanx... ohh and my main goal is on handling! if that helps....

    Well, I can't answer your question about the Slips, but our stock tire is 195/60/15. 215/45/16s are almost the exact same diameter I believe.

    i have slips in 16s. i have 205/45/16 on them. alittle smaller than the stock diameter, 3% less to be exact. i'd like to try some 215/45s next time. i have ground control coilvers so i can adjust the height. if i can offer some other advice, uh i wouldn't get the slips if i were you, everyone has them, but hey if you like them then go for it.
