This is probably a really easy question. But, I am used to box chevys and 26s. 5 inch lift and anything fits. So when it comes to my hatch I'm sorta lost. I want to buy some rims when my tuition reimbursement check comes in January. I plan and lowering it anywhere from 1-3 inches. It's a 1995 cx hatch. I would prefer not to roll the fenders. I know I am gettins 15s but not sure on width. 6.5 or 7? And what about tires?

These are the rims I am leaning towards

You will be fine with a 15x7" and a +40mm offset. No rolling needed :thumb:

Awesome thanks Teal. I'm guessing a 6.5" wide rim and the same size tire will be fine as well.
