Alignment Advice?
My car needs a 4-wheel alignment (17,800 miles). It is a '93.
I am going to change the wheels to 9-1/2's (+56mm) on the front, and 11's (+50mm) on the rear.
Do I line the car up w/ the original wheels or with the new (wider)wheels on the car?
I respect opinions, but I am looking for answers with first hand knowledge.
thanks in advance.

I don't think it makes a difference. How would he correct offset with alignment?
OTOH why not just get them done with the new wheels?
For a definitive answer, post this in wheels/tires. Luke from tirerack will know.
