    16x9????????????

    I have 16x9, 4x100, et15, center bore 57.1 wheels. Can I safely run 225/45/16 up front on oem springs, with no drop??? The car is an MT2 vert. What if I drop the front 1 inch. Will they rub in either case? I do not like the stretch look. Nexen 225/45/16 fit the wheels perfectly. Any replies would be appreciated. Thanks......................................G.

    You might need some spacers.

    Oh wait, no drop? You should be fine, but 45 series will look funny or a bit "lifted".
    Need a part? PM me.

      So if I drop the front I will need spacers? What about 225/40/16 up front? Billie sports x 4 and adjustable coils x 4. That way I can drop the front 1 inch lower than the rear. And all adjustments will be to my taste. I like a front rake. Your thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks...................G.

        Front needs spacer anyways doesn't it? But I'd do a 40 series all around if it were me because 45's look huge. But I like my cars low and tucking tire. But it can fit just need camber plates in the front and rolled fenders all around.
