wheel selection

i want to use Yokohama ADVAN A032R size 215/50VR13 tires. will these tires be a better match to a 13x7" or 13x8" wide wheel? im watching 2 different sets of wheels on ebay right now, the 8" wide wheels are the cheapest. guess which ones i want to go with .

8" rims will be too wide for those tyres. 7.5" is the recommended max.

Also bear in mind that 032's are being phased out (some sizes are already extremely difficult, if nigh on impossible to obtain)





Dont just build it.....make it!

i saw that also, tires for wide 13 inch wheels are getting hard to come by. but thats really the only size wheel i can use, anything else on my car would look like a monster truck.
