take a look around here http://www.discounttire.com/dtcs/fil...ager.offset=20 i like the drags dr-34.

And you can see what they would look like on your car on that website.

Get no larger than 16's. 15's look about perfect on EGs IMO.

For 15's you'll want around a 195/50-15 tire.

For 16's either get a 205/40-16 or a 205/45-16. The 45 profile will throw the speedometer off more than the 40, but it will have better ride quality.

I agree with a wheel no larger than 16's. One of my friends did some work on her car and got 15's and it did look great with the car. I think that's a good size, as well.
