I mounted winter tires on my OEM 20" GT rims for ski season and with summer approaching need to swap back. I'd prefer to find a set of rims that fit the original tires, which are brand new. The OEM GTPE wheels look good but I haven't spotted any sets for sale without the tires. Any other options? Seems most people buying new wheels are taking the opportunity to go a bit wider. I've searched but apparently I'm the only person letting the tail wag the dog!

The stock 245s should fit on anything between 8.0" and 9.0" rims. You might be able to go wider but would be pushing the fitment pretty hard. I'd say 8.5" would be ideal.

Thanks, I'd done that with my ICE sports cars but wasn't sure if that was a bad idea given the weight of the Mach E. But I guess half an inch shouldn't be a big deal!
