13"s? Should I? (Test Fit photo inside)

I would have to shave down my brakes just a tad if I get them... Also, it seems like I might need hub-centric rings, it's hard to center them manually. No idea on the exact specs or even what they are.. But all I know is they're 13x6 or 6.5, unknown offset. The only names I spotted across them were VIAL and a torn up RONAL sticker.

ummm... I don't know. I cant see inside to even know where it's rubbing. Not enough space for light to go through or feel around. hahaha

Put painters tape on either the brake caliper or the inside of the wheel. It'll tear away where the wheel rubs.

As far as the tire sizes, try going to the link below in this post, key in your tire sizes and click "Show Tires Made In Each Size". Hopefully that'll help you find a set of tires that will work for you.

I have the same question, I found a set of 13" gold mesh wheels from a civic. I don't like the idea that it just doesn't bolt on directly.

Keep us posted on your progress.

I would put 13" wheels on my car if there wasn't too much hassle involved.
