Default Please Help: Can you put stock wheels and tires on a lowered car?

I have a 98 Nissian Sentra that is lowered with 18 low profiles on it. The rims are bent and wont hold air so I have to replace them. Can I put stock steelies and stock tires on the car with it being lowered?

whoa whoa....are seriously thinking of putting stock wheels on a lowered sentra???

it wont work man...that car has way to little suspension travel to accomadate stock wheels which are surely smaller in diameter that the 18s,plus all the torque and horsepower you will get from the stock wheels will surely cause some sort of accident...

i would advise doing this!!!!!!!!!!!

Here is a novel concept. How about returning the 1998 "Nissian Sentra" (must be some Native American brand or something) to stock height, with stock rims, and stock tires? Youve already managed to bang the fucking shit out of the rims and tread because you dont know how to drive with them on and lowered, so instead of killing someone else on the road with your deathtrap, hows about putting it back to factory height?

OR, you can just drive it off a cliff and save us the trouble of worrying when youre on the road.
