    I'd like to replace my stock rims with larger rims.

    It's my first car and everything right now is stock. I don't plan on raising the car either.

    Just keep the rims stock then. You could easily run 17's, 18's, 19's if you wanted some even run 20's.

    GPAGS - Grand Prixs Against Ghetto Sleds - don't go anything bigger than an 18. Depending on which stock rims you have, I think they mate with the car well and should be left as is - spend the money on other stuff. Just my two cents though, she's your ride.

    If anything, you're gonna want to drop it.

    A lot of different rim sizes look nice, but you might need to make some simple mods. Fender rolling, stuff like that. I plan on putting 18s, MAYBE 19s on..definitely don't want to go 20"+. But hey, it's all about your opinion, it's all that matters.

    By the way, welcome to GPF!

    Not to mention you would destroy your transmission. Do some reading first.

    If you just daily the car and dont beat the **** out of it everyday, 20's will be more than fine. You are just looking at the costs of the rims and tires at that point and wondering if you want to pay that much.

    19's hands down will cost you the most money because of the price on tires is stupid high.

    A set of 18's look great on these cars, fills everything out well, but its up to you one what style you want.

    Depending on the offset & wheel design some 20's look good on our cars. IMO any bigger and it gets to be ridiculous. Otherwise I like 18's, as do most on this site.
