Does anyone here have these wheels on their car and if you do could you post a picture, and these wheels have 215/45's on them will 245/45 work on the 17 x7 wheel? They are off a Scion and I think they will fit the Fiero's

235/45/17 is the max anyone should put on a 17x7 rim, and a 225/45/17 is alot safer.

215/45/17 is probably going to have the firmest feel.

if you want 245's go with a 8" wide rim.

So they are direct replacements on the fiero? No drilling or adapters? May be a good find at a junkyard..... Thanks for the info!

:Edit: Are these off the tC?

There not quite a direct replacement. They are the same bolt pattern, however, the center hub has to be milled 3mm
(if I remember corectly) And yes, they are off of the TC.

I agree, it needs more rubber, but I bought these fairly cheap from a friend with the tires on already, and I'm not about to
spend more money on them until they wear out. The cars stance is different now since the car was lowered 2" with coilovers
and I took a coil off the front springs.

What size wheels would be the best fit on a Fiero, and what size tires if you were going to lower your car ?

Best? That's largely a matter of personal taste. Personally I like the look of a 17/18 mixed set (17's up front, 18's in the back). Gives it a bit more agressive stance IMHO... My wheels-> https://www.fiero.nl/forum/Forum1/HTML/052038.html

I think his spacebar broke.

As far as best size, I have 235/45/18 in the back and 225/50/17 in the front, looks awesome at stock ride height.
