Are you using that "new math" they are teaching the kids in school today?
No wonder our kids are having so much trouble.

Yes, our bolt pattern is 5x114.3mm, which equals 5x4.5", not 4.75".

Lots of wheels to choose from, take your time to really find what you like, and then I can help you with sizing & offset fitment.

I'd suggest you figure out which drop you want first, because that will determine what size tires & wheels will fit without rubbing. You don't need to drop it first, just know what you plan on doing in the future so that you don't buy wheels & tires that fit on stock springs, but rub when lowered.

Yeah, i messed up. Cant do metric conversion very well. lol Public school thing.

Im just looking around now, I want to drop the front alittle lower then the back for alittle rake. I dont think i want a big wheel cuz i like the look of tire meat and not a rubber band. Still in the thoughts process.

The xB2 on OEM springs has about 1.5" of rake to it, so just about any springs will maintain some rake, even if they drop the rear a little bit more compared to the front.

The mild drop springs that maintain the most rake are the Eibach Pro-Kit (1.0"F/1.2"R).
The heavy drop springs that maintain the most rake are the Sprint springs (2.0"F/2.0"R).
There are lots of other options, these just maintain the most rake.
