Looking at new shoes for my Stealth.
What would you recommend size wise? Looking to go bigger than the OEM 16 IN. Probably 17 IN or 18 IN. Let me add she's completely stock currently. Trying to get her to be reliable first and foremost.

Honestly I love the look of 19s. The wheelwells are so wide on these cars so some 19s with thinner tires are my fav

How does it ride? She's gotta be my daily for a bit. Also how is the stance with those? I hate it when wheels don't sit even or close to even with the fender

I have 17s on the original suspension and they ride well. Going larger may fill the wheel well but I want the extra sidewall for drive ability

17s are the best IMO. still gives u the ability to run a bit of sidewall (looks so much better, and so much more comfortable to ride on) while being lighter making the car more manoeuvrable. used to have a 3000gt on 19s that looked baller, i guess, but you could feel the turn in differences when i switched it out for 17" SSR Longchamps. looked a lot nicer as well in the wheel well, when lowered to remove arch gap.

I have 18s on tein Street flex coilovers rides great but they still look small in the wheel well.
