Default Stock wheels and tire question
I am looking at the GForce KD tires. Am i better off sticking with the stock sizes or getting something else for the stock rims ?

Do you want runflats or non-runflats? I didn't think G-Force KD's non runflats were available in stock sizes. The G-Forces are a great tire and I'm very happy with them. However, if i had stock sized rims, I'd get the Potenza SO-3's. You just can't beat the performance for the price.

If you go too big on the rims you have sidewall issues. Stock is fine
