    Second set of questions, my car currently has staggered wheels 14 front 15 rear. I plan to change those to a different wheel all 15 or all 16. Tires in the size I want are available for both wheel sizes. Is there one particular size that looks better, they will be Halibrand kidney bean look alike wheels.

    I would recommend going 16's, because tires for 15" and smaller (other than rugged tread, off-road tires) are becoming harder and harder to find. 16" seems to be the new "small size wheel", but you still get a decent sidewall height so they look OK. You'll increase your tire options.
    NTFDAY, 36 sedan and rsinor like this.

    Enjoy the little things in life, and you may look back one day and realize that they were really the BIG things.

    This is an old picture but the only side view shot I have of the car, its almost fourteen years old as you can tell by the date stamp. I want the front end up about two inches without air gap on the fender and a different wheel look all together. any photo shoppers out there that can add unpolished Halibrand kidney beans to this picture?1.jpg
