To each his own.

How about Deep Dish?

Open in new window

Moises' sedan. I'm guessing those are 225 tires but with some negative offset
(perhaps -25) on the wheels to make them stick out so far. Looks like a 2" ZG flare?

Tip for people running 15s on 1200s...don't turn into driveway of busy supermarket on any kind of lock.
Once got them (yes, bloody TRX's) stuck up under the guard, back wheels just spinning and a queue of pissed off shoppers forming behind me. As if that wasn't embarrassment enough, my efforts to lift the front end resulted in feet slipping on the wet ground and faceplanting into the bonnet!...well at least it cheered the shoppers up.

I have 14s on the 1k only because I cant fit anything smaller over the discs :(

That's not because they were 15s, but because the TRX offset was wrong for the tires and/or the tires were too tall.

The same problem can occur with 14s.

I did that about a month ago, fell flat down trying to lift a corolla.

True all that dd.
Still, highlights the perils of bigger wheels/wrong profile/offsets.
Are TRX offsets all the same?
