If you do run the skinnies,,,ol 165r15's work great....and remember...also to run the skinnies,,,a 5/16 spacer,,,,have to grind the caliper bracket(not very much)and run 3 inch wheel studs...on the front...

Dude...dont buy Weld racing rims for daily driver use
The handling is not going to be good and if you run MT ET Streets, they wont last very long on a DD
These rims+tires are meant specifically for the track, to lessen rotational weight and to grip hard in the quarter mile....not to be driven every day on the street

Nittos are generally for larger wheels, Weld Drag Lites are usually a much smaller wheel... 15-16".... small sidewall tires would look [:'(]on welds!
