Wheel and Tire Sizing

Steeler · 05-13-2013, 01:34 PM

Hi all,

I am debating ditching the stock 103 style rims and RFT for a custom set of rims and tires.
I came across this table of sizes from an online site.
Can anyone confirm that the bold face line will fit a 2004 E85 with stock suspension?

Thanks Dave

The best way to do it would be to confirm it yourself:

The stock offsets are listed on here somewhere. You could experiment with some offsets that are known to work, figure out the extremes, and then bracket.
