New tires and wheels for stock suspension
I consulted the tire and wheel guide that was stickied at the top and decided upon going to 16" MB Mesh X wheels (16x7 38ET) and wrapping them with 205/50/16 Continental ExtremeContact DWS tires. I plan to keep the suspension at the stock ride height, but will add the TRD swaybar soon and perhaps some TRD shocks once the stock ones needs replacing.
I regularly hear about folks with rubbing issues and it seems to be mostly with lowered cars and/or wheels with offsets well beyond what is recommended. Since I am keeping stock ride height, would I be correct in assuming my wheel and tire selection won't rub? I don't believe I will have to alter anything suspension-wise, correct? I want this to be a "drive-in-and-drive-home" deal with the tire shop. I was originally going to put off buying new shoes for the car till next spring, but I figured I can use some tax refund money to take care of it now when I can afford to do so. Thank you. |
