I am putting on some 16" 2000 model 5 spoke rims with 245/50 H rated Goodyear Ultra HPs on them. Yes, I know these tires are wide but the offset is fine because this is the widest tire that can go on this rim.

I looked some number up online for the 2000 model year and they said 33 front/30 rear but I just want to be right and not mess up my tires and/or rims.

 

that pressure will be fine, but good luck getting those to fit.

It's not "can the tire fit on the rim" it's "can the tire & rim fit on the car".

there's a lot of clearance issues on our cars with reguards to tire size. If they fit, I wanna see pics.

 

Yeah we will just have to see. Jay25 and me are putting them on along with some eibach springs on my tokico struts with new mounts so with finger-crossed it will hopefully work. KNOCK ON WOOD!!

 

Good luck

 

You'll have no problem physically mounting them, but after that turn the wheels all the way to the left and right and check for interference before going for a drive.

Good luck getting those to fit. I think you will need it....

 

Well we have put the eibachs springs on with some minor problems.

1. The tires do not fit in the rear. The front tires would have worked but I dont want to go with the ghetto look. So what tire size should I get like 225/50 something???

2. My stupid rear passenger side Tokico insert shocks is stripped so now when I drive over bumps you can hear it making those messed up sounds. Hopefully I can get a new one from Tokico because they do have a lifetime warranty on them!!

But I am satisfied with everything for now and the first drive back home from JAY25 house was nice. I could first notice the braking was a litttle better, then there was less oversteer. Just have to wait to let them settle.

Does anybody know how long it will take them to settle??

Pics will be posted after I get the rims on!!!

Happy Holidays to everyone

 

Darn, that was fast!

I tried searching to figure out what the offset is on those 5th Gen 16" wheels, but all everyone ever talks about is the 17's. It's going to be either +40 or +45 most likely, so I would stick with what people run with their 4th Gen wheels (on 3rd Gens), which is 215/55.
