LX 5.0

I want to get ride of my stock Rims and arn't sure how big of a rim to get and how wide tires? Does the car ride nice with smaller tires in the front?

17" adn 18" rims fit and look nice.

245-255 will fit up front and if you get aftermarket
control arms in the rear you can remove the quad shocks
and get a 275 in there, if you roll the fender lip you can get
more.

Good tire shop will usually have jig/tool they can bolt
up and tell you exactly what you can squeeze under
there.


btw: done the 5 lug conversion yet? 4 lug will restrict your wheel choices

Thanks for the info. No I don't remember if it is four or five lug nuts. Sounds like four are stock? Is this expensive
