well, I have fitted 14" RIMS with low profile Yokohama Rubber...
They do touch the walls above tyre on bumps and stuff but nothin else..

you could possibly fit 17s on there .. but it would not be driveable... plus it would look stupidly stupid

Well it currently has 13's on it now.
And i was thinking of getting some 16's or 17's.
But i also have to find a tyre that will fit inside the arches.



What is the widest a tyre can be on 1?
I have thought of putting some small flares on the arches so i might have to do it too fit something decent on.

dude to be honest .. anything above 15s look shite on a mightyboy ... stick to 15s .. plus you will loose ALOT of your acelleration if you go any bigger cuz the wheel is too heavy


either way 16s dont physically fit into a boy without MAJOR well modifications.

195/45/15 is your best bet for a tyre and rim combination

when hunting for rims .. spend the extra money and get a magnesium alloy (really lite) wheel.

195 is too wide, you need 165 on a 15" rim. ;)
