called up wheelnext.com and was looking at getting TENZO R PASSION 5 rims. wanted to get 215/45 x 17 and they said it would not fit and would rub on my fender. how come some people on this forum has 215/45 on their car? is it the offset depending on each rim? what is the offset in our cars? now the issue is i dont wanna go too low profile? where i live there's alot of pot holes and bumps. so i want a thicker wall. wats the best size to go with 215/40 or 205/45?
PLEASE HELP ME SO I CAN BETTER DECIDE WAT SIZE TO GET thanx alex |

(17's with 215/45's on them) not sure on the offset, but they have a significant wheel gap....i want to lower my car now. anyways....i put them next to stock size tires, and they are only about an inch taller...... I'll try and get my pics online and post them sometime soon to show you what i mean. There are people on here with 18's and 19's.....i dont think youll have any worries with 17's (and one person with 20's) |
