    according to the wheel/tire calculator, 195/50/15 is almost the same as stock 14" wheel and tire setup.




    @OP:
    +35 sticks out too much IMO.
    Are those 15x6.5?
    what wheel offset?

    mine is 6.5Jx15

    until now, never know what is my wheel offset as it is replica, and when it seem nice fitted , just straight away pay.. hahahaha. the seller smile !

    No probs bro, that nickname's too difficult, got them because maverick was taken at that time (1998) lol.
    I'm still haven't figure which wheel size I want to get. I know for sure I want the OZ WRC white rims 15". Maybe I better start off with H&R. I dunno, will it makes the ride hard? My wife won't like it if it gets hard ....

    Everyone says the Tein springs are softer, but they still give you the lowered stance. Maybe thats a better option.

    Mirage aftermarket springs & coilovers from Tein!


    There is some comparison of spring rates in this thread:

    Suspension & brake aftermarket parts index
    Custom Mirage products: Cruise control kit, Glove box light, MAF sensor housing, Rear sway bar, Upper grill block

    Current project: DIY Nitrous oxide setup for ~$100

    offset usually looks like +40 or +35 or +38.

    Usually, a higher + number means the wheel and tire go inward/toward the car and a smaller or - number means it sticks out more.

    Struts/shocks also help with bounciness. When I only changes struts on my 88 corolla, ride was a tad firmer.

    Yes I actually prefer changing the shock breakers, did it to my Galant and the ride's much sportier and with good quality ride
