Default Serious Rim Questions...

ok, im getting away from the whole "show" thing, im building a car that is a daily driver, with the ability to take it down the straight-away and jump over and take it through the twisties, i just ordered tein ss coilovers so i have a good range of adjustability through the dampers and ride hight, no my question is, what size rims should i get, yes im getting slips, and i know everyone has them, so please dont tell me taht five hundred times, atleast im not getting black... so what would be a better choice, 15" or 16 " and what size tire, im more concerned with going through the twisties, and roll over... so any help would be much appreciated... thanks

I would go with either 205-50-15 or 205-45-16. Depending on horsepower output. Obviously, the more hp the larger wheel. The 16 inch wheel will hurt acceleration on an underpowered car pretty bad, but will help a descently powered cars overall traction.
