I guess I'm living with the rims and tires I have for now and will simply work on fine-tuning the PSI and do other mods. The tires are 195/60R 14 and are 20 mm (0.78" or ~ 3/4" of an inch) wider than stock (195 vs 175) and about 6.6 mm or 1/4" taller. The 185/65R tire size is ~ 1/2" taller than stock. Anyhow....this about wheels....so...

Here is my car and rims:

As you can see, they are 14" x 6.0 alloys and only a Plus zero upgrade. 195/60R 14 is not much wider than either stock width (175/65R and 185/65R) and right in between each in terms of height. It's not like I'm pimping out my ride with larger rims and much wider tires.
