i finally found a wheel that I like (Axis Se7en Mods)...what tire and wheel sizes are you guyz using for you 04 SE??? want to make sure it looks good so i thought i would get your opinions first!



thanks

 

I'm running 245/35/20's
Are planining on suspension as well to get rid of the gap? (especially up front)
Those rims are nice, I actually looked at those as well...

 

I really like those rims, especially the lip on the Mods. I wish they were out when I was looking for rims. What color are you looking at?
I have 255/35/20 tires. I like the width.

 

right now i'm on the stock tire 245-45-18.......but where i live going to a 35 would be toooo low....potholes etc.....i would consider a 40 series tire....i'm gonna do a little research to see if they make a 265-40-20.....alittle wider but not too low of a profile........as for lowering it...not sure just yet...the ride is pretty harsh as it is so i'm not sure if i want to compromise the little cushin that is left.........but thanks for the tip...if you have any other tips i'd appreciate a thread...by the way....NIIIIICE RIDE!!!


thanks again...
pics coming soon....................

 

Thank you,
When I was researching wheels/tires I found that with lowering anything over 35 would be too tall and anything over 245 would be too wide.
I have had no rubbing problems whatsoever...
Hey ELCOPAN are you lowered with those 255's??

 

i cant seem to find a 40 series with a 20inch wheel........i really dont want to go 35's but i might have tooo......i'll keep searching....as for width maybe the 265 is alittle tooo wide so i may have to tweak my tire size alittle.............thanks for the quick response

 

If you want 40 series tires go 19's.. They make the AXIS in 19.

 

I have Eibach springs, 2in front /.8in rear. Usaully, I have two little kids that ride in the back with no rubbing at all. I did get some rubbing with two adults and a couple of ice chests filled with beer and soda in the trunk. I didn't care for that at all. I'm even considering going back to stock in the rear and waiting for some coil overs for the front. I'd like to go 1.5 in front.

 

We have the same exact setup but it seems that your front end is way more tucked than mine. Do you have the SE or the SL (I'm SL) and I wonder if that might make a difference?? When they first put my springs on they left the back stock at first, it didn't look that bad, but then we decided to put them in for a bit more tuck.

 

I have a SE. I think what your seeing is the slightly thicker tire. 255/35 not only are wider but also seem a little bit higher than 245/35.

 

Makes sense...I just want to lose that little gap....

 

Those wheels are going to look really F'n good. Are you going to get the Mods? Meaning the ones with a deeper lip in the rear?

 

not sure just yet....i like the even look all the way around.....hmmm....not sure....

 

you can buy 245/40/20 tires i was gonna do that on my 03 but then decided to go 255/35/20 and drop it 2 inches

 

where can i find them?
