i own a 2000 geo metro 1.0L 3-cylinder...
ive been browsing around for some kind of upgrades or anything... but i cant really find any upgrades, just replacement parts... any ides?!? are there any other cars that might be compatible with the geo... ive already ordered a new engine and transmission (honda crx engine)... also im looking for new tires... i currently have 14's... will 15's or even 16's fit on here?!? how about these rims?!?

If you're lookin for upgrades, check out teamswift.net. They're more based around performace and styling. There's TONS of performance parts available there. Especially for the 3cyl.

Those should fit, as long as the bolt pattern fits 4x114.3mm . Also, a 6.5" wide rim is definately going to rub the inner frame rail at full steering lock. Not to mention you'll have to get your fender lips rolled up so they don't rub the tire also. 16" will fit too, but make sure the OD of the tire is as close to the stock rim as possible, or your speedo will be WAY off. Not to mention the bigger rims will slow your car down quite a bit.

Woah, have fun with that one! You'll be replacing transmissions and headgaskets in no time! :icon16: But seriously. Better learn to be a mechanic quick with those cars. They're quite the pain in the ass.
