I'm updating my wheels and tires. I have 15" splitrims and have found a company that will rebuild my wheel using the existing centers so that I can use my original hubcaps
and switch to radial tires. All that is left to do is figure out what wheel size I want. My goal is to improve ride and handling while keeping the outside diameter of the tire the same. Of course, I will be adding performance sway bars and new shocks. Currently, my wheels are 15 X 6. I'm wondering what the advantages and disadvantages are of switching to 15x7, 16x7, or maybe even 16x8. Should I go wider in the rear? I do understand that lowering the profile of the tire may result in a bumpier ride if I go with 16's. Any professional input or advice is greatly appreciated.
