stock ride height you could get away with 195-60-14

if you lower it, go 185-60 or even 185-55

cuz the 195s will rub

don't go with 195s!

Whatever you do do not go with 195/60s, they will rub on the front under hard braking/turning even at the stock ride height.

Trust me on this! Just run 185/60s ..at least on the front. 195/55s will work too, even with 1.5" of lowering.

195/60 w/ 2.75 inches of lowering = really burnt out sidewalls!!! hahahahahahahaha...i can soooo relate to the 195/60 issue.

definitley go with 195/55 or lower or 185/60.

anyways, the killer style is like 8.5 inch rims with 195/55's!!!! hahahaha
