Default Wheels sizes?

Hey guys,
Just wondering if you can run 19's on a 95 eclipse?
If not I assume 18's are a go then?

On a side note, i'm wondering if 95 eclipse's were ever build with
disk brakes in the rear?

Last thing,
Anyone who has a carfax account, could you please get the info on this car for me
and e-mail all of it to bheppe@rogers.com

Thanks.

1. 19's will look terrible on an eclipse. stick with 17's max.

2. gst's/gsx's come with rear discs, i dunno about the gs/rs's

18" only look good with the right rims. there is alot mor options in 17" that look good. and only some gs/rs came with 4wheel disc brakes mine has them.

Thanks for the input guys.
I think I may try 18's and if not 17s it is.

Thanks for the replies on the brakes as well, the reason I asked
was because I'm thinking about picking up a 95 eclipse GS and the
thing is, the engine is shot so it hasn't been driven in about a year
and sat outside all this time. I put it in neutral and took the e-brake off
and tried to push the car but it wouldn't move. I'm thinking there is no way the brakes
could of rusted so bad to the point where they fused together, so in that case, the
rear brakes must be locked. Anyone know a easy way to unlock the brakes so I can put the car?
I'm thinking hopefully if they are disc's I’ll be able to just prey the calliper off but if they are drum
then I’m probably going to have to pull the whole brake assembly off right?

Any suggestions to this problem, preferably easy way around it?

Last, still waiting on that carfax report. I'd do it myself but seems silly to pay 20 bucks just to use it once.
Thanks guys for al your help.

if it has rear drum brakes and wont move the ebrake cable is frozen up you can unhook it if u take the drums off but i only for transport. i would suggest taking it off see if it moves if so i would not screw with freeing it up because in the winter it will stick once more just get a new cable.
