Default SRT-4 stock rims

Hello,

I'm new to this forum, I've found it by googling all night long.
I'm from Merkelbeek in the Netherlands and I've bought a CHrysler Neon (Dodge Neon were sold als Chrysler Neon in Europe) some months ago. It's a 1st. gen from 1998. Three weeks ago I bought a set of SRT-4 rims and at the moment they are being resprayed at the carshop. But now I need to know what tire size I'll have to use on these rims because I've heard not all tire sizes will fit because of coilovers, springs etc??

Hope you guys can give me the info I need.

Greetz

(p.s. hope my english is ok to read?? )

i have a set of painted srt4 rims. i believe you need 205 40 17's to fit otherwise it will rub against the struts.

yes you do need to run a 205/40-17.....the 215/40-17's will work as well, but since the srt4 rims are narrow, i probally wouldnt reccomend using them...
i had the 205's on mine
