I'm not sure where to pos this so I apologize to the moderators if this is the wrong board.

I am wondering what size rim and tire people are using on your thirdgen with the stock rearend? I am pretty sure I will be getting a 15x8 Weld Pro Star, but I am not sure which size slick to put on it? What size are you guys using on your stock car. In other words no mini tubs or fender bending etc.
