    What color? I think some gold ones would look great on your car.

    just roll the fenders, and i agree with bobby a gold or maybe a bronze would look pretty sweet.

    I thought the Prodrives were pretty conservative. Havn't seen them in a while though.

    You can always look for a calculator in the web somewhere....

    I would say no problem with up to 235s. 245s maybe, but like bluetwo said, the prodrives are pretty conservative, so maybe not. This is just from what I've heard, not personal experience.

    sorry bobby, they're the same color as your wheels. yes i personally think cold or bronze would look better but they were on sale, and i just couldn't say no.
