I downsized to 205/55/R16's on my SX
Got the rims cheap, tires are michelin x-ice. Rims are from a 1993 Ford Probe GT.
Rims & Rubber are both directional (rims have fins on them)
Just a FYI to everyone who plans on buying aftermarket rims, be sure to check the inner space of the rim not just the bolt pattern+centre bore.
I previously had 1997 Eagle Talon Rims that did bolt up, but just barely scraped/touched my front brake calipers. Kia site states front disc size of 11.8'' add in the caliper and your at-around 12.5'' or so (I didn't measure). The ford probes inner rim size is 14.5'' at the smallest (which is where the hub assembly would bolt up to) I believe this is called offset.
tl;dr. Double check everything before you buy aftermarket rims, best idea is to test fit the rim on your car if you can, unless the seller can guarantee fitment.
