  • Tire help!

    I am looking to replace my stock rims out on my 2009 g6 sedan. I was just wondering what you think the max rim size I can go, without making any other other adjustments.

    I think you can put 19x9s without any modifications.
    Mods:Wams lx9 tune, gtp rear valance, custom Flowtech catback, volant cai and box, raceline stb, CM lowering springs, pioneer touch screen stereo, black vinyle arrow head overlays, Pontiac rear window decal and finally g6performance decals.

    Not much left without dumping a few grand so I guess ill be redoing the stock sound system with polk audio everything.

      If you want to change tires also about 20" diameter and 8.5" width. This assumes you are using factory correct suspension. If you want to stick with the same tires, you need to get rims that are the same size.

        Yeah stock suspension I might install coil overs down the road but that will be down the road. I have no problem getting new tires if need be. Thank you for the help

          Anytime. I use 18" wheels with a 45 series tire. I also have coilovers. 18" wheels will let you get an 18lb wheel if you are after performance. A 245/45/18 tire will allow a wide contact patch with a firm sidewall. AKA good grip, with less sidewall deflection.

            As per right now the only performance I plan on doing is cold air, headers, and exhaust. I want to work on appearance before anything else.

                20x8.5 max on the front on a 225-35-20 and the rear I was able to run a 20x10.5 under the fender on a 275 wide tire

                  I don't want it lifted at all. It sits high as it is
