your wheel gap will get bigger and your car will look more gay all jacked up.

Plus your speedo will probably read faster if you dont get taller than a 50 series tire on that 16inch rim.

Well if you go bigger wheels and dont compensate with a drop it looks jacked up and in my opinion looks stupid. sorry you dont have any taste.

putting wheels on has nothing to do with the alignment and the balancing has nothing to do with them fitting all you do is put them on and make sure its the right lug pattern right hub size and turn the wheel all the way to each side to see if it rubs the fender well or anything. but dont the type r saturns come with a stock 16 wheel. j/k but i would get a 205/40 or 45/16 to ensure better look and no rubbing.

I have bigger wheels and I know what size tires to put on them to not make it fuck up the speedo and I know what size you can run on what size rim. I know my shit. You dont. As for your friend I dont even know who youre talking about....next time get your facts straight.

Next time try something like this http://www.mr2.com/FORMS/tire.html
