(1G DSM) Will larger wheels AND tires work in substitute for lowering the car? I'm not that experienced with tire and suspensin mods. Can you get say 18" rims that arn't wide enough to cause a problem and put larger diameter rubber on them to make the overall diameter of the tire larger than stock with out clearance problems? I'd like to fill ou the wheel well a bit, keep more rubber after the rim for traction. I'm thinking maybe larger tires will reduce slipping at launch for a FWD too perhaps. I don't care about the speedometer being off. I think there might be a way to offset that with an EPROM edit.
I refuse to lower my car. Living in wisconsin snow is gets deep sometimes and I just don't fee like scraping on the crappy roads and blowing out my oil line up front(already done that at stock height).
Any help would be appreciated.
