What size wheels do you want? Will you daily the car? Do you want them to be aggressive?

You ask for help but don't tell us what you are trying to achieve....

Can't tell if OP is trying to troll us or not ...

^they can be whatever you want

There is no "CORRECT" wheel spec. Wheel spec is completely custom ... And made to what you are going for. That is something you will have to decide.

It still seems like you have no idea what you want to do ... So until you have a CLEAR vision of what you are trying to do, it will be very hard to help you.

Sffd103 hit the money question from the very beginning! When your new to the whole Mod scene things can be pretty tough just because there's so many options! In my opinion if your going for a daily, don't go more 19 inch wheels. Imagine all those potholes! If your going aggressive, anything applies! Roll & shave your fenders. Get coils or springs & most importantly get camber! Goodluck

Probably doesn't know about fender rolling or pulling. I think op should do some further research about our cars before asking.

Instead of hating, try giving knowledge or eat a hot dog.
