I'm looking for steelies for my car. I think 16's should still clear the brakes. Bolt pattern is 5x110. My Tires already said they couldn't help me out with steelies :(

I'm in the same boat as you. It's hard to find steel wheels that clear the brake calipers on SRT-4's and I have the ACR package and no one makes a winter tire to fit the wide 16" wheels. Probably going to buy some cheap regular SRT-4 17" wheels off ebay and outfit them in 17" winters.

Off topic i know, but... HeavyD: I haven't seen an ACR SRT4 up close, are those rims BBS?

Isn't 5x110 used by volvos?

User "ricecake" was selling some steelies a while back, might be something to look into.

Have ya checked out Canadian Tire? I've looked for steelies in the past for friends and they tend to have some decent stock. The best one to call is the Northeast location.

Alright, looks like I'm screwed for steelies because of my brakes. I'll now be taking quotes for 225/18/40 winter rubber.

Actually, I'd like it narrower, but whatever will fit the stock rims and keep the stock diameter and keep me from crashing :burnout:

Thanks :thumbsup:
