LIGHT WEIGHT
STONG etc..

Please help....gonna need it pretty soon..

Im guessing that the stocks are pretty good, save that money up for more engine work if you want to race on a track, the stocks should be fine.

I went from the OEM 19s to 7.5" wide 17s, F&R with no problems. Am running Goodyear Eagle F1 GS-D3s in 225/50-17 front and 235/50-17 rear. Pick whatever size fits the rim width you buy that has the diameter as close to the originals as possible. The sizes I chose are the same as OEM, but in a different tire model.
