16in Dumbass Rims...
so the p5 i found out has an odd size rim. had a small hole in my sidewall and no one on the island had my size tire. mazda ppl here say it had to be special ordered. oh, should take a month. wtf???

they are 6.5" rims or that atleast what discount tire told me and they said they fit fine and ihave a no questions asked warranty(15 bucks a tire). I'll take a pic for you if you want to see how they look, they don't really buldge that much and honestly, they are only like .3 inch shorter than stock but they are like a inch or so wider

no real nead.....I KNOW discount tire, I have been doing business with them for 25 years....the are pretty good about backing up what they sell, no questions ask.....so since you got them there...you should be okay.....
I was just saying that Kuhmos doesn't recommend putting that tire on any rim smaller than a 7"...... certainly I know there is a safety factor involved....but you won't get the best performance from the tire...thats all. I am sure they look fine....and as long as Discount Tire backs their work....you should be fine. I still believe that our rims are 6's though....but either way... I am getting 215/40's for my car in a couple months....when my new wheels get in from Japan. but they are 17's |
what kind of rims are you getting??
