I have the 03 Sport and I am wanting to upgrade my factory tire/rim combo to a larger wheel size. I know that some of you guys have like 20's on yours, whats the largest I can go up to without raising the vehicle? Will 22" or 24" work? Brandon

You can roll 22's with a low profile tire. I like the look of 20's, but a very clean set of 22's looks good too!

Matt, we do not have the same wheels! Yours are only 20s! Okay! I did not copy you. Incase you didn't catch that.

Yeah, I figured that, on my vehicle before the Exlporer, I had 18's with low profile tire, so I am use to that. I still have the 18's in the garage, I put one on the Sport one day just for kicks, it looked like a toy tire....
I thought about putting them all on for a day and go out cruisin, just to see what kind of looks I would get...they are chrome and nice, would love to have them in 20" or 22", but $$ are allot for them...Brandon

They are 18" "Limited" rims (chrome) and 4 "Aurora" Low profile tires size -- 225/40ZR18 92W. They were on my 2003 Eclipse for 2 months before I traded for the Sport. They are in perfect condition and have only 1,200 miles on them. I can send digital pictures if you are interested.Featured images
