That is the old rule of thumb but you really don't need to do that anymore. Tire tech is so much better now than it use to be, and the reasons they use to do that was thinner tires cut through snow to bite the ground better, but with new winter tires that can handle snow, ice, and ground just as well it really is not necessary.



Over the stock brakes? Beg him to add those to the wheel directory, I'd be all over 15's if I knew they'd fit. The smaller the wheels the cheaper the tires.



this exactly. I'd be so tempted to find wheel places that would just try wheels to see if they fit. I'd love a cheap light set of 15's.
I noticed the Sparco Terra is now available in 15". Curious to see if that clears, since I believe the 15" Methods (low offset) do too.
