Re: rim question..

Honestly I wouldn't buy those - not because they won't fit, but because the 7in width will look funny. Putting a 225 tire on those are oversizing - I believe the stock wheel comes with 7.5in width on the 16in diameter. It will make your handling worse than stock...

I wouldn't get anything aftermarket unless its 7.5 or 8in diamater - its not an upgrade unless you get 8in or a 7.5in with an oversized width (235) tire.
