(IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) Great, I purchased online and put them on yesterday after I rebuilt the suspension and they looked too big, in the rear (I hate that) yes however, I have no axles in as yet so I assume that the attitude will change once loaded. |

I think they look 'just right' on 15" stock width wheels on narrow body .......... I had 195/50-15 before and they looked too small in diameter for the style of the car .... |
