Hey guys, I know what the wheels reference says. But just want some replies on the biggest size wheel and tyre combo you've got on your STANDARD suspension setup.
Plz list your Ride height and if there is any scraping.
Cheers!
ps, at the moment I'm running 13x5.5 Magstars, with 175/75/13
they look good In my opinion however have traction issues at times. So I'm needing to upgrade to something to fit the new 10.5" discs at the front. With many possibilties on offer I'm in a bind to get it just right !

I got RA23 14 inch steelies on mine with 195/60/14 and 215/60/14
and haven't had any problems with em. I wanted 205/60/14s on the
front but alas they rub on the strut, so 195s it is.

Dude,
There are alot of options you can go with. The most important thing is getting the right offset for the car which can prove difficult unless you get wheels made.
On mine (Very Low) i have run both 15 x 6.5 and 16 x 6 all round. No problems ! It will soon have 16 x 7" under the rears.
Alternatly you can fit a neat set of 14 x 6 if you dont want anything big. Widest tyre I have run under the rear on a STANDARD guard and diff was a 235/50 13" and widest front was a 215/50 13" and it looked tuff too !
Mind you stearing gets bloody heavy so i would stuck to a 195 or 205 as the widest on the front.
A nice set of 15 x 6" will do the job nicely, even better again would be 15 x 7" on the rear and 15 x 6" on the front, just gotta get the right offsets.
Hope that helps.

currently sitting on my car (unfortunately the car is on blocks)
are 205/50 15"
dont know how offset is affected but this is bloody heavy with sports steering wheel. I find this tight enough on the front guards (havent hit guards yet!!)

I'm thinking at current I will stick to 15x7. Maybe 16x7 if something nice comes up.
