Wheel and tire thread... (info needed)

Welp my 96' RMW is down with a bent  KMC 820SS I hit a pothole and I'm wait to see what the Boro is going to do (probably not a damn thing)

But I feel like a noob for asking but what is the ideal winter wheel for our RMW's?

And 2nd question is I do plan on ordering new wheels I would love some input on what would look best as far as sizes and offsets and all that good stuff...








These are what I am looking into getting...

From what i've read most would recommend 17" or 18" max so you can run a reasonable profile for daily driving.

The larger the tire on the rim, the less likely you will damage the rim if you hit a pothole. Run 17s with a 235/65/17. They are 29 inch tires, fit under the fenders, and make for a plush ride. I am running them on my 92 OCC, and really like them. If you have a lowered car the stock impala 255/50s are 27 inch tires.

Thanks a lot Fred, just for shits and giggles you please post a pic up if ya could?

By the looks of it, tires are not all too expensive either...

I got the tires and imp wheels on my OCC at the junk yard for $250. I don't have a pic, and this site does not like my pics anyway. If you PM me you email, I will take a pic tomorrow, and send it to you. The tires make it look like it is a much smaller car from a distance.

I run 17x8 0 offset with 235 60 which are 28.1" tall which is real close to the stock height of 28.3 and I feel give plenty of cushion to protect the rims. The 0 offset does only leave about an inch of clearance between the tire and rear wheel opening tho.

How easy are the lattice wheels to come by? I like my wire wheel covers, but want something a little different.

Sorry for being off topic.

I sent you a pic of the White Elephant on 235/65/17s.

Just got it, thanks!
